Description
This is the only fish I know that could actually qualify as a pet. It doesn't just swim aimlessly around in the tank. It comes with personality and attitude. Talk about your hawg (large mouth bass). When my first one was about 6" I fed it a dozen fedder fish about an inch long. I figured it would take Oscar a few days to eat that many. Boy! was I wrong. Try a few hours. When I went to bed that night it still had 3 tails sticking out of its mouth.
Thought I would take my turn at displaying my pet, as so many of you are pet lovers too.
God bless and thank you for your visits and comments.

I HAVE 4 OF THESE GUYS EACH IS A DIFFERENT TYPE AND EACH HAS IT'S OWN PERSONALITY.
Let me tell you about one I had about 25 years ago... He would come to the glass when I tapped for him. If I showed him food through the glass, he would swim a loop, arch out of the water and return for the treat. Feeder fish? After a few years, the 2 dozen we bought him every week got to be a joke. He was very large by then. We took to dropping a raw chicken leg (small one) into the tank about every 2 weeks. He'd suck the whole thing into his mouth with the bone joint protruding, and after awhile he'd spit out a nearly clean bone to the bottom of the tank. Now, this was one that was very large (the more they eat and the bigger the tank, the faster they grow...) and he had to be at least 7 or 8 years old by then. We went on vacation one day, put 2 dozen feeders in and returned 5 days later. Oscar lay dead on the floor. We still believe he committed suicide when he decided we had abandoned him. :-(
