  • This is going to be either a baby flowerhorn or a tiger oscar tank. Maybe a wild oscar if I can find one. Help me decide.
    A quick note about the background:
    Back to Nature sent me the background. I wasn’t really looking for a free background, but a long story short, I got them for free. I was going to buy Back to Nature anyway, so I thought what da heck. But it took so long to finally receive them, and one was warped, so I changed my mind about how I was going to install it and decided to put it outside the tank. I think it still looks pretty good like that. I actually like these backgrounds. I used them in Kartoffel’s tank and in the igloo tank. I think there’s a reason why many youtubers use the services of people who majored in business, and not talk directly with companies.

    He contacted me and asked me to use the music he played. If you would like your music to be used in my video, you can send me a link to my email fooflowerhorn@gmail.com
    I’ll credit you in the video itself and put clickable link in the description or as a pinned comment.
    A while back, I mentioned about asking those of you who play music, but I decided not to b/c of the false copyright claims. If you want to play public domain music or original music or an improv version of public domain music, you can upload it to youtube, wait 3~4 days to see if it gets false copyright claimed before sending it to me. In the email, please write something like you give me permission to use it in my video. Piano, guitar, or any orchestral instrument is fine. I like Satie, Debussy, Liszt, Schubert, Beethovan, Chopin, and others. If you have music that you think will go with my vids, send it to me. Even if I don’t use your performance, I’ll link them in the description for people to check it out.

      You should consider the Oscar, to me replacing pollock with another flowerhorn sounds a bit sad (to me). Also Oscars are more hardy and less fragile then a flowerhorn. But at the end of the day it’s your choice, I’ll still be your sub no matter what :)

    My worry with a Flowerhorn is that you run the risk of having another scenario where he is so aggressive to anything in his environment that you would have to remove everything from the tank, which in this situation would sadly most likely mean rehousing him. I don't know if Oscars run that same risk of behavior or are merely just destructive to their environment sans the self-harm.

    Looks amazing, we missed your videos! I'd go with an Oscar but you might want a larger tank once it's grown.

    Maybe a puffer fish! 😏 Like a spotted Congo puffer. They have lots of personality and would fit in that tank although they might want some plants and they are quite rare.
