    Those Oscars are beautiful and are going to grow up to be stunning. A trick that I found over the years to really get their colours to pop is to use a very high quality Koi food. I have been using Tetra variety sticks for years and my Oscars absolutely go crazy for it.

    Also rather feed less than more, they are usually always hungry but always say a hungry Oscar is a healthy Oscar.

    Good luck with them and enjoy.[​IMG]

    My Diet for my cichlids is hikari pellets products and frozen brine shrimp from ocean nutrition ( once week ) being using it for few year now and works great.

    Just given what works for me.

    But each to his own and what works for the setup and fish.
