I can’t believe the recovery of these Oscars, there’s no sign of the whole in the head that they came with, the puffiness has decreased considerably they’re looking so healthy now .Good job Vic you’ve done them proud 👍
You are an oscar expert, so I trust your judgment :) They do look better, I kind of haven't paid attention and now that you are saying this, I note it too.
How is my favorite fish the high fin doing? I haven’t even gotten a glance of her in the last few videos although when you run to rehome a fish I sure do look. Haha. Love all your fish Vic but that high fin is extraordinary. Just fascinating to me. I’ve never ever seen one so big and beautiful. You do such a great job and I enjoy every video you put out. I watch every second of every one. From Western Pa with cyber love ❤ thanks for sharing your fishes.
I beg to differ but do value your great attention to our primitive operations here. The hi-fin has been good. Sometimes it gets a bit hungry because the eels are pigs but we try to compensate. They appear to be very slow growers. I don't think it added even one inch since the last update on it.
Your place is like the old Dating Game show
Certain time of year like right now, yes :)
Oscars are my favorite fish :) When you point out at the different Oscar the back (and you say a Latin name), the subtitles call it a "crusty penis" which I don't think is correct lol?!
That's funny but awful! :) I was saying Astronotus crassipinnis :)
@@Fish-Story "that's what she said" lol!
You have almost all you should try some dovii cichlid and some big size geophagus and discuss
He has several Dovii, including a big one in the left 4500 gal
We have and film 7 dovii - 5 in 240, 1 in 300 timeout tank, 1 in 4500. Our focus is on the biggest fresh water fish of the world, everything else is a temporary diversion or a distraction :)
Muito lindo ❤❤
Thank you :)
Omg the Tiger Oscar’s are beautiful with all that orange. Yep that’s definitely breeding behavior. I bet you’ll get eggs laid on those rocks and that’s why they are hanging there. Mine is doing the same thing right now and it’s the only Oscar in my tank with Severums and other S Americans.
So who is your oscar targeting for a mate?
@@Fish-Story so it pretty interesting because she chases everyone else away from her favorite rock EXCEPT my 2 male gold Severums! She shakes her tail and head…bites at her rock and the Severums just hang around and watch her closely. Everyone else gets chased by her. I’m worried though and hope this breeding behavior stops soon since she’s getting pretty aggressive which I hate. She’s normally so chill but now shoes just mean! Anyways she basically has 2 Severum boyfriends! 🤣
@@tracycarter1185 That's interesting and, sorry, funny! Are oscars known to hybridize with severums at all? I've never heard of this but I am cichlid-challenged.
@@Fish-Story yes it is funny! Totally ok to laugh. And no I’ve never heard of an Oscar being able to have babies with a Severum (or anything else for that matter). So I don’t think I’ll be getting any babies thankfully! With my luck my Oscar will be the first to ever hybridize Noooooo!!!! Lmao
Hey man , how much big of a tank do u need to house 4 iridescent catfish , I'm planning to build a 8x2x2
There are some IDS that are of such poor geneology that they don't exceed 1 ft in length even after several years but for an average IDS this tank would be too small IMHumO. I'd recommend a 2x bigger at least, 8x4x2, which will need to be upgraded to something 2x bigger yet in a few years.
@@Fish-Story yes bcs I'm planning to build a pond of about 10 feet by 9ft and in future to build a 50ft long one . So if i can keep them in a tank in their juvenile years to teach people about them , I can keep them for a few years in a tank
@@Fish-Story how big does a good gene IDS gets , here in India they easily exceed 1 feet in few years
@@thebeastfishkeeper9394 They should be more or less 2 feet after 1 year if fed and kept properly. With excellent genes, they should grow even faster. A lot of time they are underfed, either intentionally or because they are skittish and compete for feed inefficiently. I like your plan.
@@Fish-Story I am inspired from you man , i have kept iridescent sharks for long time and now I wanna grow my channel and educate people about big fish and tanks and show them u can do it if u dream it .
Keep them separately that will be better
Why? I respectfully disagree. They enjoy the company of their own and they do not damage each other, so there is no reason to separate but to keep together. It's natural for them to behave like that.
