my suggestion is for 3 oscars you need a bigger tank than that.

Re:give me some suggestion :D 1 year, 12 months ago #78012

I think you may be a bit overstocked. One Oscar to 55 gallons minimum.
How many gallons does your tank hold?

normally in malaysia, 2 ft aquarium means 2x1x1. means it is a 16 Gal. eric, u need to go buy a BIG 6 ft aquarium..! and use at least 2 power filters at each end. i dont think they sell fluval canisters in any LFS here. u living in sarikei now? if u cant get cichlid pellets, get flowerhorn pellets. otherwise u would hav to order some from kuching or sibu. budget around RM600 for the tank+cover+lighting+stand.

I aggree with the others.
It will be next to impossible to keep those fish happy in the tank they are in now.
Like Win said once: No matter how hard you hope or pray, those Oscars will keep growing!
Neither will a Internal filter do you any good for 3 Oscars.
Internal filters may be good for some mechanical filtration and for creating some current, but for bio filtration you will need a big canister filter to go with the new tank.
You need an upgrade to keep your fish happy, healthy and alive.
Keeping them in a tank that small will give waterquality problems no matter how religious your waterchange scedule will be.

Although this may not be the advice you expected, please let us know what your future plans are!

but at my country hard to buy canister filter and if wan is expensive around rm 400 to 600 so it will cost too much but i will keep improving

Re:give me some suggestion :D 1 year, 12 months ago #78213

Finnally i found a fluval canister filter 304 it is good ?.? and it was rm 380 on malaysia T_T pretty expensive where i see the price a word out my mouth hahaha so any idea if use other than fluval ?

You need at least a 55g for one oscar and ideally you will need a 405
