Hello. Would like some advice on my feeding for my Red Oscar. He has pellet morning and night. Two or three nights I will swop the evening feed for around 4 average size worms from my local bait shop, which he loves! Also, everynow and then, some bloodworm. Is this all ok? Should I be feeding him anything else to keep him in tip top condition?

Any advice would be great. Thank you.

my goal is simple a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all

I have always fed my Oscars on Hikari and Tetra pellets, I believe these to be some of the best on the market and all of my fish love these, not only the Oscars.

I think you are feeding your fish perfectly okay. People often are how many pellets should I feed my Oscar?the easiest and best way to feed your fish is not by how much food, but actually for how long. Feed your fish for between two and three minutes and they will get more than enough food.

I thought I would also add that I also feed my fish on the kril, , shrimps, frozen lance fish, cockles & muscles, the Oscars absolutely love all of these food

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved
