Ok thats fine Joshua see you later...

Nice michael

Why thank you Mark and Kathy one of my oscars has HITH sould I get rid of it....

I would not put them together. Micheal, you seem to be having some health problems with your fish. Did you get the one healed that had the hole in him? HITH normally water conditions. Are you doing regular water changes, and cleaning filter boxes?

i read that hith is food (lack of variety) related...poor water surely does not help

My water is spot less I clean about 20 percent every day......And the food that I feed them costs me 45.00 dollars

If you change 20% daily that could be a problem, to often unless there is a problem. Water clarity and price of food have nothing to do with it. I am just saying you keep having fish get sick there is something wrong. Don't be so offensive I am trying to help. Variety has nothing to do with price either. I don't pay but 13.00 for a large container of food, but feed the oscars worms and krill and healthy as far as I know. I have lost 1 fish to bloat.

Don't Oscars make the water really dirty really quickly?

Will I have them all in a 60 gallon until I get my 120 next week...I know you trying to help Roger and I thank you for your help...

And I know that is alot of oscars in a 60

grown oscars no more than one per 55 gal. Jenn, they are very messy eaters.They also produce alot of waste..

I know thats why I getting the 120..

Not saying anything bad here, but Oscars are just kinda not attractive to me. I don't know how their personalities are, but I don't think I'll ever own one because of the waste they produce, plus with my pleco in there he already produces enough poop. =)

LOL J will everybody has differnt taste the Oscar that I have the big orange one comes right up to the top of the tank and loves to be pet lol

i agree jennifer , if they stayed small i'd own a bunch but they seem like overactive poop factories to me and i like more active fish too
