best if we know what tank mates you have with your Oscar

ive found that if worse comes to worse a mixture of both floating and sinking food, generally my O's go for either 1 or the other, in which case your other fish will grab what the O does'nt get!

hope that helps

Matt

in that case i guess you'll be better following askhammatt's idea and mix the food, i tae it your oscars are eatin floating pellets?
if so, try something that will sink for the other fish, that way the oscar cant be in the 2 places at once, and dont worry, your other fish will rush for the food once they know the oscar will take it if not.
good luck mate.
