My Texas pair recently died due to a fungal disease.... they lived with my pair of albino (snow Oscars).I only just got back from my trip around my world to find that my Texas had died They are in a 6 by 2 by 2 (feet lol) tank. I was checking out my lfs and saw a beautiful pair of apparently rare Oscars called "zebra" Oscars. They are basically tiger Oscars with white instead of red stripes. I was thinking of buying them seeing as my tank is looking kinda empty. I was just wondering if any of u guys new anything about these fellas. And if they are any good, (good meaning friendly) can i introduce them to my relatively friendly snow oscars.

p.s i have a divider on stand by just in case

Cheers

Hi mate,
all depends on the size of your current oscars and the size of the others. Also, you will have to understand that the same thing might just happen again, the oscars if paired up may just kill them, they may not.
If you are going to do it, i would rearrange all rockwork just before you put the new ones in.
All oscars have different temperaments, and different colours or strains dosnt make a difference.
