The king of DIY.. hi. Would you ever try hook in the big tank or the pond.....? It would be interesting to see. Definitely the best aquarium Chanel... 👌👌

[@EdWolfram]

My Oscar "Mr. Nibbles" has quickly become on of my favorites in the fish room. Great personality and very interactive. He is messy which I perpetuate by adding floating stem plants. He spends most of the day tucked into the plants waiting on food "or my hand" to hit the water.

[@itssliders1355]

[@danielalexanderyt3232]

Thanks for teaching me how to clean a used tank. It really helped me. The used tank I cleaned will be used as a quarentine tank for my new oscar tank I'm getting soon, so I just want to thank you for that

[@TheBatman254]

I love Oscar fish I have to

[@Sons4me77]

So glad you made this video! I keep nodding my head in agreement with everything. So many don’t realize that that cute little Oscar chasing your fingers on the glass at the pet store will get big and fast! I have my 2 knuckleheads in a 125G filtered with TWO FX6’s. I still do water changes regularly because, like you said, they are messy. I love my babies. Man, you hit the nail on the head with everything in this video right down to them changing colors with their moods.

[@TheFishBeast]

Dude. I tuned out for a little while with the direction you took with your vids but this... THIS type of video (and your old school DIY stuff) is what I subbed to you for a long time ago. To see you geek out on your oscar changing color is really awesome. Thanks for sharing that! Cheers bro!

[@pistachoo.]

My mom had an Oscar that refused to die! Despite several instances of hole-in-the-head, and house-sitters who over fed, under fed, and lapsed with water changes when she traveled, she always came home to find him still swimming around! He finally died at 18 or 19 years of age. He was huge, probably about 14" long, and hilariously picky about the decorations in his tank. There was one little flower pot he absolutely HATED, and would always bury with gravel every time my mom dug it out and repositioned it. His best bud was a large common pleco... he'd let the pleco come and "groom" his sides and float aimlessly adrift while he enjoyed his massage. My mom lasted less than a year before getting a new one because they are such entertaining roommates! The new one is doing very well and has a beautiful smooth face; no hole-in-the-head! He also does the thing with his pleco pal, now, though it took him a while to decide they could be friends.

[@GeneralGiggleMuffin]

The close-up shots are so good. This fish looks amazing. Such an awesome copper color.

[@TuckettIII]

Thank you for making this video! Ive recently purchased a Tiger Oscar, and found this video to be incredibly helpful in caring for my new fish.

[@oregonterri]

Thank you for the closed caption, it really helps when I am taking notes. Keep up the great work!!!

[@r3andfam986]

You definitely inspired us to get a fish tank after 20 years of being out of the Hobby. Now I am introducing it to my six-year-old daughter

[@abbystevens5693]

Interesting.I m not a Oscar keeper.But I love species profiles just to learn about other fish species and why people love them. Thanks again for another great teaching video Joey.I now kind of understand why you love Oscars.

[@kingiking8305]

I had 2 red Oscars for many years and they were like a couple of little dogs to me because they were so intelligent and friendly. I could handle them and they enjoyed it. They used to love bulldozing all the gravel in the tank from one end to the other. Sometimes when they were naughty they would smash the tank lights . I ended up with 16 tanks with many different species just like yourself. I love your red discuss also and appreciate all your work and vids mate. Take care.😆 Regards. ....Kingi

Hook is one of the best looking Oscars, and a perfect example for this video. Good job Joe

[@michaelvalentine7502]

So cool to finally see you with an Oscar. It’s the fish I’ve been keeping since I started in the hobby back in 1995. Greatest fish in the hobby if you can provide the proper conditions!

[@zenithmaiden2109]

I've got two oscars in a 125 that are about 5-6 months old right now. They are the cutest little dudes, only 6 inches or so right now, but I love to watch them and they seem to enjoy watching me and following me about the room. They are such diva fish though - I tried giving them a homeade mix of whiting/raw shrimps (fat/protein), peas (fiber) and garlic (Vit C) bits in a gelatin suspension and you would not BELIEVE the dirty fish scowls I got! They pouted on the bottom of the tank until they got used to it. I've been working with them early to help them be hand-friendly for when I have to clean or work in the tank - they will often swim between my fingers or rub on my hands. They will even watch as I move their decorations to siphon and clean the tank, often coming right up to where I'm working.

[@bethowen4270]

Loved it Joey! I think a mini series about each tank/fish would be really cool!

[@rayward623]

[@simonmoylan4014]

agree I'm in australia and things are getting abit better they used to just sell them to anybody

[@heidispawsandfins]

Not a fish for me due to the extra work, bland tank, possible problems with them getting on with other fish etc. But they are beautiful. It was great hearing all about them and getting a real close look at Hook. That colour change was amazing! They have lovely faces and yes, great eyes! I hope you're going to do this with all the fish in the gallery - REALLY interesting and able to spend one whole video appreciating just one type of fish. Thanks Joey x

[@lindasmith1912]

In my first fishkeeping years I had two little tiny Oscars in a ten gal tank. No internet then mind you. Then I had two in a 20 , two in a 40, then went right to 75. I loved them. They would sulk and drape themselves over rocks and play dead if their food was late. They would rub on my arms when I was sticking the plastic plants back in. I took a serial murdering electric blue African cichlid about an inch long and threw him into their tank. He'd killed everything in a 55 tank over a weekend when we were gone. It was either that or burial by sea. The huge Oscars never ate him! They grew, he grew but they never ate him. He was, however, exceedingly polite.

[@Tidepodss]

My Oscar just turned 7 years old two weeks ago( since I’ve gotten him) he has a lot of personality. He hates when the heater light comes on indicating it’s on (it usually turns on at night) he also loves his log and anytime I sleep with the lights on he always watches me sleep. I have him in a 75 gallon. The people I got him from didn’t treat him well, you could tell by all the scratches and he does have hole in the head. I took him to the vet at the beginning of this year and they said this would probably be his last year but he’s still healthy and being a brat haha. I recommend getting an Oscar if you’re a busy person because they don’t require much maintenance given you have the right equipment. They’re always happy to see you when you get home and they’re so fun to watch.

[@charlesmartel8446]

Hello, i was wondering if it is possible to keep just one oscar fish in my 90 gallon tank. Can i keep just one? Or will it get lonely?

[@ballsdeep994u]

Your lack of maintenance, as you put it, is probably why he has hole in the head.

[@Tidepodss]

Balls Deep he had hole in the head when I got him and it was really bad, it’s a lot better now. When I first got him he would just lay on the bottom of the tank. After few weeks of medication and a bunch of water changes he started eating again and swimming around. I have a pretty good canister filter so the water is crystal clear and I do constant PH checks just to make sure.

[@ballsdeep994u]

@@Tidepodss some advice..... keep your canister filters pretty clean. Canisters are known nitrate traps and high nitrates can cause hole in the head amongst other things. Also, pH doesn't really matter. Fish adapt to pH.

[@Tidepodss]

Balls Deep okay, thank you for the advice. I’ll go get them changed and keep a closer eye on them! (:

[@Littlewings1211]

I really enjoyed having a species specific video, that was really cool. When he changed colour so fast it looked like he got seasick 🤣

[@khamteh29]

Bring back so much memories! Used to ride 3kms to LFS on my push bike when I was about 14! Remember picking up 3 tiger Oscars in the rain placing the bag on my handle bars. Awesome days back then. Thanks Joey

[@octobergardner3255]

I've had my first Oscar which was a Tiger Oscar for 15 years. When he died I honestly cried for three days because him and I had a bond that was beautiful. Over the years I've had more Oscars but personally I think there wouldn't be another Oscar as cool as my first one.

[@Fullautofreedom]

thats how a good fish keeper is supposed to lose fish. Of old age. thats respectable. not giving up your fish because you think you can get more clicks and views with a different kind.

[@marcuskelly7051]

Robert Smith I also had an albino Oscar that was over ten years old and it recently died a few months ago. I finally got around to getting a new baby for the tank.👍

[@alerixv]

@@Fullautofreedom He's always been open about cycling his fish and re-homing them to great homes when he does so. Just stop man, its actually pathetic how dedicated you are to hating.

[@Fullautofreedom]

@@alerixv and how pathetic you dont see the hypocrisy of your own comment. hating on me for having an opinion on how someone treats his fish. Just stop man, you dont look very smart. And giving fish back to a petshop isnt re-homing FYI.

The lonely mans fish. Lol!... good catch with the color shift. Very cool!

[@NiX_aKi]

❤️ Thank you Joey for featuring the Oscar.. Calcium. I find food with calcium prevents and even cures hole in the head without using any medication. I feed mine hikari and market prawns (shell on) and I'm in on this one with Rachel O'leary, no terrestrial meats 😁

I'm a goldfish guy but I always think about having some cichlids in the future and the oscars look pretty neat. This video was so helpful. Thanks.

[@bellabubbles333]

Thank you for doing this video! I have two tiger oscars of my own and I absolutely love them! Also I'm doing a speech on Oscars in my com 101 class next week.

[@josequins9099]

I love how Hook's coppery colour is echoed in the 3D decoration in his tank. Very pretty set up altogether.

[@lisajligon]

Mine change colors like a mood ring. They also will play with a ping pong ball. For substrate I use giant marbles (too big to swallow) and they like to move them around the tank.

[@acoustixminor87]

Hooks coloring matches the tank backdrop very very well. Beautiful! I was writing the first part of this message while you were showing off the color change so I went back and WOW, I've never seen anything so drastic like that.

[@Faworki]

Hey Joey, where is Frank? the last 3 vids You have done and walked thru the gallery I see Franks tank is dark.. Where did Frank and his wife go?

[@clairemckivett5865]

I'd love to see more feature fish videos, this was great! Hook is looking amazing, that colour change insane!

[@akiraz3493]

In my job I’m allowed to refuse a fish sale, I always ask the tank size, experience level, and if they refuse to buy the required stuff for the fish,etc. the looks I get from the customers are hilarious, people always want to put a oranda goldfish in a little fish bowl.

[@mushlove6933]

akira ziehl good job then, “pet sellers” should be allowed and obligated to ask the buyers these questions!

[@akiraz3493]

mushlove thanks, pet care workers should be the first line of defense but sadly some pet care people don’t research or even care. Especially small petstores(not saying all of them are even bad)

[@elobrien1975]

Thanks for the camera/video perspective. You get a better idea on just how big your tanks are! Great Video!

[@craigrockwell3159]

That head color change was crazy......had no idea oscars did that, and i had 1 oscar for about 6 yrs in a 90 gallon with 1 jack dempsey pal, may he rest in peace. He was a great pal. I adopted him from a friend who also had him for over 5 yrs so he lived till at least 10

[@dogleghobag]

I absolutely adore how his coloration PERFECTLY matches the background. I think it looks great without the ship. Maybe a ship decal on the glass as opposed to the toy he can hurt himself with.

[@belladonnaRoot]

I just love that they'll eat anything. Guppies from my overstocked tank, "sure thing". Chopped baby carrots, "Why not". Pellets, "yummy". The other cichlids in the tank that doesn't fit in your mouth, "I wanna try at least!"

[@Rotsuoy]

That's so funny. My oscar is actually pretty picky. I've tried silver sides, tilapia, catfish, and shrimp, even peas and carrots, but he won't eat them. He prefers frozen bloodworms, cichlid pellets, dried krill, and some hikari gold carnivore pellets. Sometimes, just sometimes, I can get him to eat raw or partially cooked shrimp, but everything else he seems to spit out. I've never met a picky oscar before him. Ironically I finally got a food that my bichir loves but my oscar won't touch, so that's a plus for the bichir!

[@belladonnaRoot]

@@Rotsuoy I think you got a rare oscar there. Or maybe spoiled rotten lol. Then again, mine might have been odd for trying to eat literally everything that could fit in his mouth

[@iz723]

Mine ate my catfish lol. Just came home and it's tail was sticking out of his mouth. Looked so proud of it.

[@adrianchristopherx]

That's a stunning Captain!!! 😄 YES!! More videos like this, especially about Arowanas 🙏

[@michaelshrader5139]

That tank background is awesome! I want one!

[@NoName-cu4gr]

I used to have two golden oscars that got on really well together and they both used to wag their tails like a dog and press up to the glass front when ever I went near the tank. I'd have cuddled them if I could but they didn't like being touched a lot. Beautiful fish, super intelligent and it has to be said... greedy blighters. They grew to a good size in a 50 gallon tank and I will always remember them.

[@redarmysoja]

The Oscar greets it's master? Haha, no, the Oscar greets it's slave.

[@nandamari]

I looove oscars. ❤️ I had one years ago that I raised from a 1.5" puppy to an 8" beauty. "Oscar" (yep, that was its name) would only allow me or my daughter approach the tank, everyone else would get splashed. Upsetting to family members, but hilarious for me and my daughter. We were able to pet and handfeed him (her?). I was heartbroken when I had to move and was unable to bring Oscar with us. He was a true pet. ❤️

[@monkeybuttgirl]

I saved one of my Oscar's from petco, he was abused by the other fish (I'm guessing), he had one eye missing and Petco didnt even try to help him, I think. I got him and his buddy that was right by side, so got them and healed him. I now had them for over a year. I love my Oscar's.

[@mbyte84]

[@lindasmith1912]

I think it really depends on the Oscar. Mind were really sweet but I knew a guy that had one that could not have ANYTHING in his tank. No airstone, no filter, no heater, no decor. He would attack the glass if you even looked at him and he bit his owner hard any chance he got. Cujo Oscar!

[@kennethfarley8347]

I learned real quick with my first Oscar that decorations were a no-no. You will just be fighting a losing battle with the Oscar. I just loved how cute it could be when it would go to a bottom corner and lay over on it's side and pout/sulk whenever I tried adding decorations. They are awesome fish with great personalities!

Have you ever bred Oscars? The Oscar is by far my favorite fish. Many years ago (when I used to breed bettas) I had an Oscar in a 100 gallon tank. His name was Grumpy. He would get upset when my male friends came over to visit but would get very happy when the girls showed up! I had him for about 11 years when he decided to go to that big pond in the sky!

I found that Oscars like most animals are more docile after they've been fed,and some will grab the tip of your finger and it doesn't really hurt....depending on the size of the Oscar though. And some will also come and lay in the palm of your hand...depending on what mood they are in I've never known a fish to do that!

[@michaelshrader5139]

@12:40, their eyes always remind me of Admiral Ackbar in "The Return of the Jedi". Just saying. What has always attracted me to the Oscar species though is that they pay attention to and react to things going on OUTSIDE of their tank.... when I walk into the room 1st thing in the morning, my Oscars notice and move to the end of the tank closest to me and start trying to get my attention. Most fish care very little for what's going on outside of "their world" (as long as they aren't like frightened by movement right near the aquarium, they're pretty oblivious).
