as you may have noticed i have been posting a lot about my oscar and i would just thought i would let you all know that he is now fully "in charge" of the tank and "strutting" around like he owns the place ha you gotta love he!! although his foodis still a bit of a problem and he isn't interested in multi sticks. hi likes the blood worm but i dont realy want to keep feeding him that!
any suggestions thanks guy

Freeze-dried or frozen krill works very well

If you're going to do that, just get the frozen silversides.

Yes, feeder fish arnt the best fish to feed your oscar because they arent treated very well. And they areNT feed vary well so you Oscar is getting very little nutritional value.

Some ideas are breeding you own guppies or keep the feeders for a week and feed them bloodworms brine shrimp and high energy foods that your Oscar would need.

Oscars are a great fish and Im sure you will enjoy yours.

It's better to feed him frozen food than live fish.
You don't know if the fish might have a decease.

Earthworms or nightcrawlers make a great Oscar food.
