Hey emissary howzit going? Hows your oscar now?nay tankmate success?
Ive had an oscar for 7 months and hes bout 7-8 inches. The entire time hes been in the tank (6by2by2)his tank mates have been
joanjonsonnae(mbuna)3.5 in
Midnight peacock cichlid 3 in
tropheus cichlid 3.5 in
2 bumblebee catfish 5 in
2 mystus catfish 4in
red tail black shark 4.5 in
female con 3 in
koi 5 in
gold spotted pleco 6 in
Most of them still growing
He hasnt attacked another fish once(barring the pleco who barges infront during feeding time at the bottom of the tank, he warns the pleco but doesnt bite). I used to feed him feeders but i noticed massive aggression levels a few days after, i found this pellet from hbh called oscar show, he loves this stuff coz he gets really excited when i bring the container into sight haha. I hope mine doesnt snap one day and go rogue!
In another tank(4by2by2) I have two black sharks bout 2 in that get to 24 in and are pretty aggresive and stocky, so if the oscar goes nuts he can have them for buds
