earthworms, free and high in protein, just rinse the dirt of first. |

my oscar used to go beserk for bloodworm, i used to put in 4 frozen cubes, and he used to fit the whole lot in his gob, loads of it used to get lost though through his gills, which the ten parrot fish homed with him followed him around the tank eating from his gills |

i had a lonesome cordy in the tank that the oscar never touched, so in all my wisdom i went and bought ten more as i thought the oscar was ok with them ( a one off i thought ) i added the ten and he hunted them down and munched the lot only to leave the original one alone. |

my oscar used to go for me, when i had an arm in the tank doing something or other, used to make me jump if i didnt see him homing in on me |
