    Albie and Bekkie only started to form a breeding pair about 3 weeks ago. Bekkie got his name when the aggressive oscar bit is mouth apart and it grew scew back. That happened when they was only 2cm big.

    With 2 plecos and Gekkie, the vacuum cleaner, I don't think I will see any eggs as they will be eaten up before the morning.

    @DoubleDutch That GG is the girl that you gve her the name, that name suits her extremely well as she always behave like a lunatic to get attention. She is currently about 5 centimetres wide and 60cm long, she is still getting longer but just slowly.

    This pleco is the longest part of my family. I've got this pleco for almost 6 to 8 years. When I bought it, it was about 2cm big, now is is about 42cm big. My 2 pleco's is getting hammered about 80% of the day by T-Rex, the most aggressive oscar in my tank.

    The most aggressive oscar in my tank, T-Rex. He got the name because his got the attitude of a dinosaurus rex. The only thing he is taking it easy with is Gekkie. Now and them he always come second to Gekkie.

    My breeding pair of oscars is getting close to surprise me with eggs. They follow the typical mating procedure. Albie, the female already watching the rock just infront of their home to lay the eggs.

    Eggs is going to create a big war in the tank. The non aggressive male start showing real aggression againt the aggressive male. He do everything in his power to protect his wife the female oscar. The fights between the male oscars is going to be really bad once there is eggs.

    The nice thing about the GG is that she hates fighting between the oscars and normally swim in between them to get them apart from each other.
