  • can you give me a list of the optimum food(excluding feeder goldfish but wild minnows i can do) to feed me 2'' albino oscar. Ive had one before but i dont think he had the life yours had an i want to give my peaches(oscar) that life

  • Hey I got an oscar a month ago and its in a 25 gallon tank but he is only 5 in long but eventually I'm going to put him in a 55 gallon tank but that is not my problem I have a air pump, perfect temp, perfect ph, plants, a filter, and a light. My problem is that I've had this fish for a month and everytime he sees me in the room he goes straight to the bottom and plays dead what can I do for him to stop that?

  • im not a specialist in fish keeping, i prefer snakes. but generally tips would be (i think): you could darken the lights in the terrarium (as long if this is ok for the fish). furthermore you could put some roots and plants in the tank (for this small fish). make sure you do not enter the room too fast. make sure one side of the aquarium is on the wall. wild cought animals are a little bit more shy than those captive bred ... i hope this helps. i think this should definately work.

  • nice colors.

  • and the myth that a oscar stops growing to the size of hes tank is true this is called death and after this occurs the fish will indeed stop growing tis is true that it grow slower but to ensure the health of oscars its a constant cost upgrading it tanks and feeding them the dealer who sold u this fish should of told u the great cost and hassel of owning a oscar

  • height of a tank has no play on the amount of fish u can keep in there its all surface area more surface area more fish hexagonal tanks are useless it all about lenth + width and dude how dont u know this im only 14

  • an oscar will only grow as long as the width of the tank(or the shortest dimension) that way it will be able to turn around.

  • is it true that oscar or any fish grow to their surroundings? Or is that for goldfish only?

    Does tank dimension effect on how many oscar or fish i could keep? Lets say i get a 120 gal hexagon tank (you know those tall long ones?)Then could i still keep 2 oscar in that? Since the length is shorter then the height.

  • certain fish as long as its not like 10 gallons but yes sometimes they have a gene that makes them get big and if they do and they get in a tank too small u can stunt them which is where theyre organs grow but they dont and they die very early

  • an oscar will only grow as long as the width of the tank(or the shortest dimension of the tank) that way it will be able to turn around

  • I have an oscar and as im putting food into its tank it will jump up at me, is that normal? or is it trying to attack me?

  • perfectly normal.

  • its sad news and i regret to inform that my oscar,Emo, died :(

  • this video was kinda short. grrr!

    (someone put that guy in front of his fish so he can zone out)

  • i got a question...if you have a female oscar...will it lay eggs even tho there is not male in site? like shoot blanks?

  • yes, and she'll probably eat them all. mine did so.

  • well i must have male cuz i never seen any eggs hes about 9" or 10"

  • well, maybe you didn't see. we saw her first eggs when she's almost 4 years old.

  • nice color on the oscar well takin care of..

  • Thanks!

  • wow
