simmo2302 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 he's just a Red Tiger Oscar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daharkazangel Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Nothing red about him. More like yellow or gold. Not my avatar mate. So im going with yellow tiger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simmo2302 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 at this point in thime there is no recognised yellow oscar or yellow tiger oscar...... only very washed out red tiger oscars who have a beige colouring instead of red. a few years back there was a sunshine yellow oscar overseas (sold pure yellow). and i know of 1 person in Brisbane who has Tiger Oscars that are as yellow as a Hi-lighter pen, but they arnt breeding them. you could try breeding your own yellow oscars if you search for better stock, but that littl one above is just a washed out red tiger.

masone Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 and i know of 1 person in Brisbane who has Tiger Oscars that are as yellow as a Hi-lighter pen, but they arnt breeding them. They aren't A. orbicularis (bumblebee oscars) are they? I saw some a few years ago in Bris when I lived there. Wish I had picked them up. Would be real nice in the pool with the pbass. Tell old mate to breed them already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daharkazangel Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Well they have both grown now. Im still adamit hes not a red, he is quite orange now. If he is just a washed out red he is one funky looking fish, ill post pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daharkazangel Posted November 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Best pics I could get. Thoughts? Cheers guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simmo2302 Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 its a nice gold/beige colour. you should be happy that they both get along. unfortunately i still stand by my earlier statement. its still classed as a Red Tiger Oscar...... just one from poor genetics as indicated by the washed out colour and the poor head shape (hopefully that fills out as it gets older) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daharkazangel Posted November 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Well I still love him They get along great. I have the two in a 6x18x18 . Wasnt all fun and games at first but.
