mandz Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Hey Neffy, I didn't know they came in that colour either, hence why I snapped it up when I saw it, would have bought a couple if I could afford them. How much are oscars in Melb? they are $20 here in Bendigo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neffy Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 we got our little guy for $15 Was there others in that colour?? omg im tempted to drive there ! haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandz Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 When I went in, I think there were only 5 from memory, one was on hold, and I bought one, which leaves 3... but who knows if they are still there. We dont have many fish stockists here, so the good fish dont last, unless they are way overpriced... we went in there a couple of weeks ago and they had one single synodontis eupterus, we snatched him up quick smart!

shadoh Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 He is a beautie! I've heard about zebra oscars, but never seen one before. Wish I had more room for one (or 2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mandz Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 We have 2 larger oscars, we have had them for a few months now, and we bought another 3 the other week, but the bigger ones have taken over, 2 died and the other one has moved house LOL... Maybe I should see if they have any more and see if I can get them to breed.... ok, I will get the bf to try and breed them LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
