You can buy fish online ? Probably a dumb question.
My new fish!

Yes, I don't because shipping is so dang expensive but you can. I meant pictures of the species look better on the Internet then mine. Lol, when I bought him he was dark black, he changed color in the bag

Hmmm, I'd love to discuss this kind of thing with you but it is against CC rules. I will invite you to a free discussion club and we can talk about these things

I am excited, I am starting a south American cichlid tank. I'm only going to have two because my tank isn't huge.
I have a jack Dempsey and a Oscar. They are both babies. Sadly the JD is alway hides when i come around. But the Oscar is usually swimming around and doing well. I will probably get rid of the Oscar before he gets too huge
Anyways, how often should I feed the Oscar? Every time I go into the room to look at him he perks up and swims to the top as if he wants to eat, even tho I may have just fed him an hour ago. Why are JD so awesome looking on the Internet but mine is just kind of tan and not that stunning? I thought it was a age thing but I saw one that was probably 3 times as big as mine today and he still had the blaned color. And why doesn't anyone seem to sell baby jaguar cichlids? Awesome fish but I only ever seen big ones.
PS, what do people see in those normally ugly but always expensive peacock cichlids? Mbuna are better in every way.
Don’t feed fish every hour! I have saltwater, but all fish do the same thing. They’ll give you “puppy eyes” and then you’ll feed them more. Over feeding is not good! I feed fish everyday. I do a pinch of pellets and they are good to go!
