My Oscar

[blacktooth]

Hello there! i'm john from Philippines..

I'm new to this site but have been keeping oscars for a long time. My first oscar was when I was highschool. I had him for almost two years but unfortunately my tank got broken so I had to put him in the pail for a couple of days with only aeration but he didn't make it and died. I shifted to flowerhorns but then again, there's a rotational brownout here in our country that time due to power shortage and all my flowerhorns died.

Last January, I visited my friend who owns a local fish store. I saw three lovely oscars then I remembered my first oscar and think if I could get a new one since I have lots of empty tanks. And so I bought one, because I know keeping oscars requires huge space and my largest tank in here is only a 55gal.

Here's my buddy..

ahh..okay. sorry i changed the name of the link..i tried to find "edit post" but i can't find it anymore?

[genocidex]

yeah theres a 15 min limit on editing posts mods can only edit after that, but its fine. next time i would just give the raw link. that way people dont think you are trying to pull on over on them.
if you keep an eye out youll see some examples :P gotta be faster than the mods tho lol.

but im still stunned by the color on that oscar XD. are you sure its a tiger and not another type? i wouldnt hate a pair of oscars like that :P

my bad he doesn't have a mate..but i'll try to find one..

It's interesting how he lost his spots and came into that beautiful red, love it! You must take very good care of him! Wouldn't find him a mate though unless you get a bigger tank.

Yeah! I have noticed through these months that his markings are slowly changing. Yes I am giving him the best that i can give! Yes maybe if I already have 100gals then I would find a mate for him.

Thank you for appreciating anyway! :ssmile:

Nice looking fish. I have always liked oscars, I just don't have big enough tanks for them.
