Here are some pics warlock . I have not used this before so i hope they work .
I was not able to get real good pics of the fry .I took the pic's right after i put some brime shrimp in the tank and a bit of crushed flake food still left . I turn the filter system off during this time so i know that the tank is a bit dirty .After i feel they have thier bellys full i will turn the filter back on and stir up the water untill its clean again .I also have Brime shrimp hatching off to one side .That tends to cause a bit of salty water splatter on out side of the tank glass .I didnt plan to turn my front room in a lab but it kinda happen that way. The fry are a bit stired up right now but with some time they will almost completly divide by colors into differant corners of the tank . I found that kinda strange but i guess it happens

Nice oscars. Congratulations on the fry.

Really nice Oscars!!! I love the babies!!!!

You have great fish Russ Does anyone know why the divide themselves into color groups?

yes they are awesome fish.
Maybe they divide themselfs into colour groups so that the are camoflaged together instead of a predator seeing seperate fish, they blend in together.

just a guess though

pretty good guess I'd say. Well done !
