TV watching Oscar

I had an oscar named Ozzy and he looked and stared at the TV screen whenever The incredibles was on but when it was a commercial, he would sort of swim around until it came back on again.Is this normal?

Re: TV watching Oscar

Well I have Bettas that pout unless they get to watch the Animal Planet every morning. I really believe fish like TV for some reason.

I do congratulate Ozzy for being discriminating and refusing to watch the commercials. What does he need with all that junk anyway ?

Re: TV watching Oscar

Wow, I've never heard of fish that actually like television. However I use to have a betta named Cartman that seemed to like it when I played my acoustic guitar.

Re: TV watching Oscar

in my experience Oscars seem to go after mostly brightly colored fish so when he sees the increadables in they're red jumpsuits he trys to eat them.

Re: TV watching Oscar

In my other house my oscars would watch TV with us. My wife and I would snuggle on the couch, watching a movie and I noticed all the fish were in one corner of the tank (135 gallon) all facing the TV together. My wife asked me what the fish were doing, I answered "they are doing the same as we are, watching TV". So I guess this means humans are attracted to the bright colors and the activity on the TV screen.
