give them a little time and if it continues put a divider or u might want to start setting up a new tank

question? did you turn off your light for 24 hours and rearrange you tank a little? if i bring a new fish into an old environment i always buy a new plant or a new rock. judging from the looks of your tank you need some hiding areas. yout new oscar is quite beautiful.

THANK YOU JASON I MADE A BIG CAVE FOR HIM AT THE OTHER END OF THE TANK LAST NIGHT THATS WERE SHE SLEPT BUT THE OTHER ANIT BULLYING THIS ONE AS MUCH AS IT YESTERDAY???

Michael give it time but i would rearrange the tank the other has his territories

michael: how big is your tank?

it may never work...adult oscars dont really tolerate each other (especially males)unless they grew together or if they are housed in a HUGE tank...adding a second oscar in a tank when there is already one establish is very difficult

They are both females I jason advise and put a whole bunch of plants in their the tank is sixty gallon but going to buy another 60 gallon to have one of those oscars in??

how can U be sure they are females, oscars are maybe the hardier cichlid to sex!!!

60 gals for 2 full grown oscars??? def too small.... minimum 50 gal for 1

btw looks like your albino has a bad hole-in-the-head case(to the lateral line)...you should isolate and treat

Chuck how can you tell it has hole in the head????If you mean the part of missing scales her and the other Oscar haave been fighting and I know the albino is a female because she laid eggs when she was by herself

good, so youre sure its a female then...h-i-t-h can attack the lateral line of cichlids as well as pores on the head... yes, i see the scars from fighting but i also see that the lateral line is attacked(dont take it personnal, its very common on big oscars)it does not look too bad, but i would keep an eye on that

btw, nice red albino!!!

The line that you are taking about are they the lines on the side of the body???But she does not have hole in her head??And thank you for your concern reply please

Whta sould I treat her with chuck??

maybe the catfish is doing all the damage..

No I dont think its the catfish I see my other big oscar attacking her

Hey guy I made my own divder and they and now the other one is not picking on her

how'd you make your divider? thx

Heah Ryan I used a lid of a laundy basket of made the lid fit with a liitle elbow grease I did it and it has holes so they ca see each other and not kill each other

thanks Michael

your welcome Ryan

Guy going to report whats happing with my Oscar yesterday she was not eating today she iseating like a pig and she looks much better

its natural.. oscars will fight amongst themselves...thats what they do.. i have 3 oscars and they try to fight each other.. even for fun... just give it time...p.s very nice albino red!

Micheal, I had 2 from about 2 inches last week had to be separated, one became dominate and took the whole tank. This is common with oscars. he beat him up good just about healed in hospital tank, giving him to a friend with empty 55/ I will still go look after him when better.
