Ok guys and girls i have question. I am getting an albino oscar today he is smaller then my TO but not by much. I always wanted and albino oscar so like grab up on this one before mine gets real big. what is best way to intrduce them and do you think he be ok cause he bit smaller. i know he wont fit in my oscar mouth lol. i have the room for the two but is it better just to keep one or get the albino see how they work out if not i can take one one and separate. thanks

all u can do is put it in the tank and see if they get along! if they dont either separate for a bit and reintroduce, or return one.

will i devider work and where can u get them at. i thought my hood has two openings so i can feed them separate etc that way i can see if they get along thru the glass and will that work then after while remove the glass and hope by then comfortable with each other.

lol i wouldnt put a divider in unless you get drama between them. just put the fish in the tank!

worse case there lots hiding spot til he gets use to him and second i can get the divider if get too bad. when i had my JD in for bit my O bugged him but never hurt him but the JD i got was in rough shape so i sold him with my old tank. But when i took the JD out my O got all sad and poutted lol so i think he like have a friend in the tank

you might want to try rearranging the decor in the tank to eliminate any already established territories. then add the new oscar first and the older one a little later. this might help but there are no guarantees on it. just be prepared to seperate them if need be.


as for a divider the best and easiest to use is eggcrate flourencent light covers. it allow water to flow freely through it and is strong enough to keep the oscars apart.

x2 with necro if u rearrange the terro's it will disaurientate the current fish and they will be more botherd about finding new terro's rather than concentrating all of their efferts on yr new oscar

changed tank around and so far so good my TO swims beside my albino lol

here pics of the new baby

Oh He is pretty!!! I miss having babies!

he/she im calling it a she. nice thing is she blends in good with rocks and that stump i have and can fit under there if need be that my big oscar not get her. they are swimming side by side here and there. when i had my jack TO attack it but with this one he doesnt attack her lol

will the albino and my TO mate if they male and female? been few hours now new one little shy but The TO get close and just swims with her has not shown and agression yet

congrats on the new fish - what a cutie!
