I see a theme here fat fish fat babies
BTW, what is the best food I can feed him? Right now he will be getting omega one cichlid pellets and fry but what else? I know the pellets should be the main diet. Could I feed him fresh store bought shrimp? Or frozen raw shrimp? Seems more cost effective then ghost shrimp and safer.
Also how much do I feed him? He always looks hungry to me haha he is gonna be a fatty
i always mixed it up
pellets one day, pellets the next. Remember to give him some peas aswell.
That don't sound like much of a mix haha. I was thinking blood worms, fry, shrimp, pellets, and what else
fixwd it sorry, been a long day
Here's what I feed my Oscar and nothing has gone wrong haha. I feed omega one shrimp pellets 4 times a week. Then I feed 1 frozen brine shrimp one day, then red wiggles one day them the Sundays I don't feed and let him cleanse out the digestive system haha. But as far as amounts go I fed my Oscar pellets 2 or 3 small feedings a day then when he hit 6 inches I just fed one larger feeding each day and I still just feed 1 large feeding and everything is going great!
One more piece of advice don't feed your oscar everytime it looks hungry since they are always hungry limit the food lol because trust me that little guy will always want more!
That sounds good to me then skip one day so he can digest haha but how many fry are there jw and do you intend on any type of tankmate or are you just going to keep the solo Oscar?
Yeah I think I'm gonna go with one in a few weeks, I'm battling the cycle after adding my seeded media in. Double dosing prime as well. 1 full dose every 12 hours to keep the ammo and trites non toxic for my buddy while I wait 24h for each 50% wc.That would look good I really like my featherfin and yah man mollies produce like crazy.
Beautiful fish! I had one similar to him but had to take him back. BEAUTIFUL!
No it won't the heater will heat it up quick anyway.
