Hi;

Respected fish members

I have bought 5pairs of 1inch albino red eye oscar frm the reputed breeder and i need yr guidance frm yr side pls help me in this matter the question are follows;

1. Can i have gravel which is already in my 5feet tank so that i can transfer all the 5pairs of 1inch albino red eye oscar to this tank by giving them more space there growth rate will double in couple of months times? what do u say for this idea given by me and i am currently having
them in L=3feet tank B=18inch/H=18inch

2.I have started feeding my oscar with Hikari cichlid pellets /live tubifix worm/blood worm and giving them prawn dried

3.Do u think this kind of food is good or do u want me to add on pls tell me ???

4. i have strong lighting of 11000 kelvin for my 5feet tank

8) First, respectfully, the assuption of pairs at 1" is a bit of a stretch. It'll be some time before they actually pair off (mate wise) if at all.
Next, the five foot tank w/ gravel if properly cycled & adequately filtered will suffice temporarily while they are juvies but by adolesent, you will have to downsize the number or upgrade the tank size & filtration. 400/500g min. will be necessary.
The diet is adequate. Just make 75/80% of the diet quality pellets & the rest supplements & treats. (Hikari is a good choice).
The lighting is subjective w/ oscars. No specific requirement. As for the Ph, as long as it is stable & consistent they will adapt & be fine. "T"
