Im looking to get 3 to grow out and then to keep the best one for my 300g. I have a buddy who would likely take one or both of the others. Or who knows I might take a shine to all three, lol
They are little ones 1.5in to 2in
Speaking of Juan, I had to add more caves/hides to the 55. It seems the RT has a couple tears in it tail fin and a small bit missing. I did not witness any hostilities, but It's either Juan did it or the Roseline sharks did.....
Seems that most of the time Oscars are all bark and no bite, especially captive born.... but Ive heard tales of some aggressiveness when it come to wild caught Oscars. When I had my Bumble Bee Oscar from Rapps it was pretty easy going but at that point they were F2 being sold.

your profile says your in Lakewood, Wa. You are about 2 hours away from the Wet Spot in Portland, I would make it a Weekend trip so you can pic out your own, and see thier 10 rows of tanks full of fish. The shipping would probably cover the gas for the trip, unless you are driving a Sherman tank.....near Ft Lewis and all.....
My wife and I do weekend trips down there about twice a year and we always stop at the store. Its only $25 to have something shipped to me so no big issue.
I caught Juan in the act. I sat and watched his tank for an hour, and sure enough, Juan was stalking around trying to attack the RT and the sharks.......
