    As a guy who've first had three oscars (in a 60g until they outgrew it) and later a single oscar, I have to commend you on the beautiful footage of them! You really managed to showcase how beautiful they look, and that's rarely the case with oscars on youtube.

      Basically the same for me. My dad had 2 oscars and when I was little I would spend all day going around outside finding ants and crickets to feed them. That's what started my whole aquarium craze. Ever since then every tank big enough has had at least one O in it.

    I have a couple of oscars living with my 4 pair of angels and they are very friendly with them, previously i thought Oscar were pretty bad fish (in terms of loving with other species) but then I saw your videos and you literally changed my whole perspective regarding oscars
    YOU ARE THE BEST TH-camR/FISH KEEPER IN THE HOBBY AND YOU MOTIVATE OTHERS TO BE THE SAME AND I LOVE THAT
    Thanks for all the efforts ❤️❤️

    I was about 9 years old (I’m 56 now) when I first saw an Oscar. A family friend had a big tank with 2-3 Oscars in it. After seeing that I was hooked on fish and aquariums. I have never had Oscars but they are one of my favorite fish.

    Man, you got me thinking of my Oscars that passed away years ago. A breeding pair, but we never got a successful clutch of eggs. Of all the fish I've had, Oscars seemed to be the most intelligent. Always excited when I'd walk by the aquarium and helped each other hunt down crawfish I'd give them for an occasional snack.

    The idea of the King wandering around Walmart hoping to meet a fellow fish friend hits home a little too much. I was from a small town originally and all we had was a Walmart. Driving to the big city was 3-4 hours away and wasn’t going to happen so I did what you did and used Walmart and found a small group of like wise keepers. I also have come along way from those Walmart times.
