My oscar will not eat any thing other then feeders and algae waffers. Can any one help with this. I know its not good to feed them feeders all the time. My other one will eat flakes and worms.

Welcome to the site

This is a common problem and there is a solution that often works, although it might sound a little cruel and harsh. Stop feeding your Oscar any food for three days and then try it with some other food such as pellets and see what happens. Fish can go without food for long time so your fish will not come to any harm so don't worry. I promise you that this is a tried and tested method that many Oscar enthusiasts recommends on many different forums

i would go with that. sometimes if I have been to good to my fish they get a little picky as to what they eat. So I leave them a day with nothing and they eat what I give them next day.
