Oscar behaving weird
Hi Guys...
Need some advise here. My tiger oscar has been behaving weird for past few weeks. Signs : 1. Hiding at the water return pipe. 2. lying down at the base of tank at times. 3. Not eating much. 4. Frequent flaring at the albino oscar Oscar does have a few "holes" in the head area from fighting with the albino and aro but nothing serious, all surface wounds tat din heal properly. So far I've done WC, added salt, increase the water flow and it's still on off hiding at the base of tank or water return area... Not normal rite? |
Gf, those holes, could they be "hole-in-the-head"? HITH thing.
If so, very frequent wc will heal those holes. honest, at times mature oscars are indeed drama Queens, very temperamental & hide around the corner. Can download a clip on your oscars, gf? |
initially i was quite worried could be HITH and was observing very very closely.
holes din grow nor spread for more den 6 mths liao... so shd not be. |

Your tiger should be a drama Queen. But soon, it will get it over. As long as it doesn't have some "sunken" stomach or open wounds, should not have much issue :D |
so it's normal for oscars to lie down at the floor of the tank once awhile?
Not coz they dying or anything? I can still increase the pump even higher if need higher flowrate lor |
