I feed my Oscars Hikari Cichlid Gold (aka Oscar Cocoa Puffs).

Does anyone else find it hilarious listening to their Oscars chew the food?

I crack up everytime I hear the crunching noise.

...kind of a useless post, but it makes my day hearing it.

No, i love that too.
First time i ever noticed the crunching, it was with the carp i started out with.
They make the same noises as oscars when crunching the food.
My carpkeeping friend said i was crazy, until he heard it himself.

My other noisiest fish is a botia/loach, for they seem to snap and crack at the pellets.
You can actually hear that from the other side of the room, like they're throwing stones around the tank.

i too like to hear my fish crunch the pellets

i am yet to hear this but it sounds like an experiance =]

put your ear to the tank benno LOL

i need a cup with string to hear lol
its to far to walk at this point in time lol

I was also surprised by the chewing sound coming from my tank when I fed my fish Hikari Gold the other day.
