you most likely just have a normal red tiger oscar. it just doesnt have very mush red in it. oscars have been bred and bred and bred again over and over so many times that there are tons of different color patterns of them.

I have some young (3-3.5") and will try to get some pics of them to post.

This way you can see what young ones look like and compare yours. I have to agree with cichlidsickness tho....

Gold oscar's are not very common and to find them in a shop is rare......not impossible, but rare!!
