Hi to all my fellow Oscar lovers. When I was a kid my Dad had 2 Oscars. He used to go visit them in the pet shop and feed them, and eventually my mum got them for him one Fathers day. I loved them. Such intelligent funny fish. Watching them do battle with my Dad and the plants was hilarious - they would mock him by waiting for him to come and see them then ripping up the plants and waving them in his face. They bit the dog when she got too curious and peeked in the top of the tank when the lid was up one hot summers day.She stayed away after that!
So I always wanted to get Oscars of my own. I started gradually - 2 foot tank, guppies and mollies etc til I worked out how to manage a tank and water balance etc. Four years later I was finally ready to give a home to Oscars. So I have now lived with Oscars for about 6 years. One died last year - my girl that was laying eggs but never became a mum. I bought another companion for Angelis and Barry (Angelis the Oscar and Barry the Gibbicceps - Barry Gibb - geddit?)and Baby Oscar is now nearly as big as Angelis. They get on very well but don't breed. I know Angelis is a boy, suspect Baby may be too as there's no amorous activity. Now Angelis is sick so my search for help has lead me to you guys (I posted under 'Emergency Help')
Nice to meet you all!
