Oscars, Fred & Affel

Hey,
I just attached some pictures of my tank and fish. Also my other tank. I noticed they are opening and closing their mouths constently and read that that means low oxygen in the tank. Can I add a bubble bar in the tank to help with the oxygen until the tank goes thru the cycle?
The fish were name Fred & Afell by my 3 year old grandson.

the bubble bar will help but DAILY water changes of at least 50% is needed until the tank is cycled...use some prime if you can find it as that will neutralize the ammonia which is a killer to fish for 24 hours until your next water change....great looking oscars you have there!! be very vigulant on the changes every day or they will get poisioned heres the link to read up on the cycle process....http://www.fishlore.com/NitrogenCycle.htm
goodluck!
