| Nope, the guy is being stupid. Someone is offering me a 75 gal. for $30. So I may go pick that up in Hopewell Junction just for temporarily. They're starting to eat off the surface now, it's great to watch. They're starting to act like Oscars. | |

| Darn, I hate to see that too... I had a bags worth LOL (large school) of danios that I rescued about 10 years ago, they were about to be flushed in a coffee shop after someone failed to show up to take them, so I took them they lived in my 20 G with two goldies and did fine. hope you got to rescue these guys | |

| Well, the Oscars are doing GREAT.
They now eat at the surface, and do a little "Oscar Dance" whenever they see me.
I'm going to be taking the pleco to my LFS this week sometime, as I already have a common down in my 55 gal. and cannot find a tank large enough to house the both of them. | |

| Very cool!!. That didn't take long at all!!. I just love these stories of fish transforming..I bet they start to color up a great deal too. | |
| | |

| | Fish Master
| Yeah, they've colored up a lot!! They look GREAT.
The only sad thing is is that in order to keep them, I have to get rid of my 55 gal. tank. So that's a big sacrifice. | |

| To appease my mother, I have to take down my 55 in order to get a 90.
So what I have in my 55 will have to go in my 20. And the breeding Cons will go into the 90 with the Oscars | |

| thats great! you got your 90! Well, mother knows best, and the oscars will be great tank mates for the cons  | |

| OMG Amanda!
I am so horrified that these fish were in such a bad situation, and so glad that you were able to save them. You did such a wonderful thing, and these new babies will love you for it! They are adorable Oscars are such fun fish. I'm glad that you have somewhere to put them now. Can't wait for more pics!

| Well, I haven't gotten the 90 yet. I'm still trying to find a tank cheap since the guy who was giving me one for free flaked out. Too busy with his new girlfriend to set up a time for me to get the tank.
I'm still searching Craigslist, Kijiji, & freecycle everyday for a large tank. | |

| The black tiger now jumps clear out of water when he sees me, lol. This is a habit that I need to break. I'm going to make a mesh cover for the tank for now. I'm afraid that he'll injure himself on a hood... | |
