First off, I do not have any oscars, but I was the main caretaker of some in the past so I do have experiance with them. I was in the LFS today and saw something I have never seen fish do. There was a large tank with a bunch of juvi oscars in it. Maybe about 20, there where 'red' albinos and plain oscars. They where all small, maybe 4-5 inches. The thing I though was odd was that they where separated into two groups. The albinos in one group and the normals in another, with one of the albinos. When ever one from one group would go to the other it would be pushed back. This was on both sides. Not chased or nipped but just kinda like " You don't belong here. Go away" type of thing. Anyone ever see anything like this? Even when I worked in a pet store we mixed color varients all the time and I have never incountered this. It was interesting.
