Description

Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.

The Black Tiger Oscar is a striking cichlid known for its bold black body and vibrant orange-red markings. Growing up to 12 inches, this intelligent and interactive fish is a standout in large aquariums. Oscars are curious, social fish that can recognize their owners. They require a 70+ gallon tank with good filtration and stable water conditions. Best kept with similarly sized, non-aggressive tankmates, they thrive on a varied diet of pellets, frozen foods, and occasional live treats. With proper care, the Black Tiger Oscar adds both beauty and personality to any aquarium.
