Hi I am new here and the site looks great!
I have some ?'s maybe sombody can help me out with here I will be greatly apreaciated.
First?
I have a 125 gallon tank I purchased 8- 2,Inch oscars a few types that i liked... Now the ? what's the best way to keep a few oscars together ? All males? ...One male with all females?... All females?....I probably will only keep a few not all 8 once they start to get bigger....how many could i keep...i do change almost 50% of my water in my 125Gallon tank weekly.

Next ? what are the best pelletsout there (color inhancement types) What brand works best...i used omega one super color on some other fish in the past but i know there are alot of brands made for oscars and other big fish...what's the best ...I have a pond and there are some pellet foods that are better that make the red on fish brighter but wont turn the whitecolor on them pink...is this the same with food for oscars as with my pond gold fish?


Sorry for the long post...

Welcome to OFL.


like paul said, you'll be better to post your questions in the right sections to get the right answers.
first of, 8 oscars is way to many for 125 gallon tank, you'll need to 6 of them.
reason being if you keep 3 then once 2 of them pair off the other 1 will get bullied.
and 4 is to many for a 125 gallon tank, no matter how much water change you do.
the best pellets for oscars in my opinion is hikari gold. they come in different sizes as well for your oscars.
2 Tiger Oscars, 1 Lutino Oscar, 1 Jack Dempsey, 3 Clown Loaches, 1 Blue Phantom Pleco.
