Anyone ever seen their Oscar go thru a shy almost timid stage when you've changed tanks? I recent put mine in a bigger tank and he tends to stick to the corners and
stays on the bottom now. The temp of the water and the ph and acid levels are the same. If so how long does it usually take to snap out of this???

It's usual oscar behaviour.
Don't worry , he may sulk for a few days like a lil' girl but will come around soon.
When I do maintenance my O lays down on his side and start sulking ,changing colour etc.
But If i show him a worm, he immediatle forgets he was sulking!

Well, that's what they do.
If it fits into the mouth, they'll try to eat it.
Been there, done that...
