hey getting some oscar fish and was told there was recipe or list of foods u can feed them on web any one seen it
 
I'm not possitive so get a few more opinions, but it depends how mature the fish are. When they are little they should be able to eat flake food. I'm not sure what it will eat when its older and bigger. Hope this helps.

Hi. Not sure about making them food, but I have always fed them cichlid food since I got mine. They really love the Omega One brand. It comes in flakes and pellets. Fish are funny though. Each fish has its own preference.
 
I ffed my oscars frozed bllod worms, frozen Mysis shrimps, and I buy bags of feeder fish, thats hwat he eats most of.

One thing I noticed is when he got big enough to eat other fish, and I started feeding him that, thats when he gained aggression 50X.

Feeder fish are cheap, and I feed him till he looks a little chubby and then hes good till the next day.
 
:D Heres what I feed
Wardly cichlid pelets
krill
plankton
flakes
sticks

They will eat almost any thing.

cooked meat
I do not recomend feeder fish.
 
I've never made fish food. I feed all my cichlids including my Oscar
Wardley Cichlid Flakes & Pellets
Hikari Gold Pellets
Frozen Brineshrimp
Frozen and Freeze-dried Bloodworms
Frozen & Freeze-dried Krill
Frozen Tubifex worms (only occasionally as they aren't really crazy about them)

And I'm always on the lookout for new things to feed them to keep their diet varied. My Oscar loves rosy reds but I keep them in a quarantine tank for at least 2-3 weeks before I give them to him.

Good luck!
