how do u keep a tank that clean i just started ive got the ph right and put the correct amount of salt my filter seems to work fine but water looks just off perfect HELP?
actually my oscar killed one with its claws on. my oscars about 3 inches long, and the crayfish was about 1 inch long. my oscar got the whole thing in its mouth from behind, and (I'm guessing) slowly digested its tail. then idk what it did, all I saw it do was play with the empty...head(or w/e its called, but the whole segment w/ the eyes/antennae "feelers"/mouth.)
why do you have to say "douche fag"? you COULD just say "lolz uhh most are bred for feeders." and be nice. the world is turning deadly. Ex.: If someone breaks into your neighbors house, you can shoot them.
oh, well I just am really annoyed at seeing comments like "OMGZ YU FAGGEN BASTUD IMMA COME TU YA HOWSE AND KIL U EN YEUR OSCAH" but OK. My Betta(Female) keeps swimming at me trying to swim through the glass, while my other one flares at her. lol. but I do have oscars but when I got them they had a pink spot on each of the sides of their heads...well I can't tell on my albino-ish oscar... but I think it might be hole in the head. But what can you expect from WAL MART.
actully hole in the head can be fixed with better water quality, just clean filters or do water changes, or buy another filter. your welcome captain over the top.
i have a albino tiger oscar with REALLLLY bad hole in the head....i have great water, all the chemicals, hes in great condition as far as i kno, but i cant stop him from getting more holes...can anyone give some advice? i love my fishy =( hes almost 5 years old
i am not tr4ying to offend anyone, but anyone who doesnt know that u need atleast 50 gal for just one oscar needs to get their head examined...how would u like it if i made u live in a little box that u couldnt even fully strech out...thats what i though...i have never owned a oscar and i porb know more about them than some of u fish keeping morans who have like 2 of them in a 50 gal tank
Fish never outgrow the tank... and if you have a 50 gallon u can have 1-5 oscars in it. I had one live for 8 years and counting in a 30 gallon it just doesn't grow much, ,Happiest fish i've ever seen
I used to breed a pair in a 30. Had three in a 55, and one in a 75 gal. The guy in the 75 lived six years. The three in the 55 lived nine years. The breeding pair lived eight. I know how old they where when I got them, because they where all fry. All had the same water condition. My experience with the Oscar. Buddy had one in 5 gal, lived eight years never got over a inch and half. Dr. Inne has great research on using tank size to control fish size, started to help keep "diggers" in check.
I bought about 20 feeder fish for my oscar, and put them in with my goldfish until he was to eat them. The next day, I saw two.....three...???? WHERE DID THEY GO??? I looked everywhere, except my goldfishes belly!!! Swollen and looking very happy with himself!! Fat pig ate them all, and oscar didn't get one. They cost me $2 a fish!!!! I wasn't happy. Never again.
I had bought 2 crayfish for my tank. Between the Oscars and the Dempsy's I soon found out that I had just purchased two $2.79 snacks. Not gonna do othat again.
Blood Parrots are just plain wrong. Its a man made cross breed that results in deformities and mutations that border on cruely. As cute as they look, people should stop buying them as it just encourages the idiots that breed them.... IMO...
I've had a lot of fish , parrots are my favorite. They have no trouble feeding like you might hear. The tailless mutations are not mutations, they actually cut off the tail :(. No worse than "fancy goldfish", I think anyone who has a problem should try actually owning one before they form an opinion :)
On that note I would never buy a dyed/tailless parrot. People are going to sell them regardless, so why shouldn't it be fish owners who actually know what they are doing rather than noobs that just throw the fish in a tank with no filter and have it die a slow death. They still need a good home in the end, and they deserve it like any other fish does.
If nobody buys them, they will stop breeding them and focus on natural species of fish. If there's no market for them, it'll become a waste of time and money.
Regarding the "no trouble feeding" - Blood parrots are a cross breed, of a variety of different naturally occuring species. Different cross breeds will have different deformities and issues. Just because a couple of yours haven't doesn't mean that some other different batch won't.
Google "Bloody parrot cichlid" and see other opinions.
This could be true with any hybrid, and hybrids do happen naturally, it's debatable. But the truth of the matter is everybody is not going to stop buying them, i'm just saying instead of trying to prove a point of stop something that can't be stopped people should give them a good home.
People could say that some breeds of dog are cruel, they are all man made. Dogs with big ass ears, small stubby legs, short pudgy snouts etc. Some dogs even have trouble breathing at times (very short snouts). I do understand your point, i'm just saying they are not as bad as you might think. The ones that "will stop buying them" are educated fish hobbiest, the ones buying them are random noobs, so this is a lose/lose for the parrot unless you give them a good home.
