Well here they are i have 8 of em but i am not sure if all are shown in the photos... One freaky looking tiger with crazy large area red pattern and a albino tiger in the back by the filter sponge it's turning black..right now in person it looks like charcoal dust you know after you rinse off a new charcoal bag in the sink to clean the dust out well the fish looks like the dust it leaves stuck all over!
Enjoy

Thanks for the nice comments Guy's:)

How big is your tank?
and are you having trouble with them yet? because you will do soon. you got a nice selection of oscars there but you'll need to lose some of them soon, and i mean soon. once they start to reach sexual maturity the male oscars will fight. I take it you already know this and have it sorted for when this does happen?

Hi it's a 125gl i did know about them but you say males will start fighting i never heard this before...so could you keep one male with a bunch of females? Because with other fish i owned the females are always the ones chasing and biting the other fish?

Thanks

125 gal tank is good enough for a two full grown oscars with 2 to
4 medium size tank mates. however, you need a good filtration to keep
your tank under check, otherwise, you will be prone to problem...
unless you have a huge tank, no one could guarantee a peaceful tank
if you have more than two oscar in it. two or more females have no
guarantee either... but i come to believe that females are more
tamer with each other even during spawning.. while two or more males
will create territorial issues and prone to always fighting.

So what's the best way to pick a male and female?
As of now do males or females grow faster....does one get larger as adults.....It seems impossible to pick out a male and female...what's one to look for?
THANKS

oscars are monomorphic meaning there is no way to determine if you have a male or female. there is one practice that might tell you and its called venting. unfortumetly even this is not a guarantee with oscars even if you have a lot of experience doing it. the only surefire way to sex oscars is to what them spawn.
