oscar + fruit = ?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Avoid frequent feedings of very acidic fruit like oranges, otherwise it's okay.
 
Oscar + fruit= more frequent water changes. lol! That's if they react to fruit like I do :grinno:. Seriously I think it's alright, though I agree with knifegill you on the staying away from fruits with high acid contents. I definetly wouldn't make it a staple in their diet just a now and then treat.
 
of course. Thanks for the info :) I threw in a small chunk of strawberry and the red oscar tried eating it but it was an awkward shape for his mouth. He gave up, lol. The plecos might attack it later though.
 
Strawberrys, oranges, lemon, lime, grapefruit, etc. are all a no no with oscars. Banana, apple, pear, etc. is fine. Mine loves to eat pear. he also loves peas.
