so I went home, got the albino I had baught took it back to the shop, we put it back in the tank and all of a sudden both oscars were swimming round each other and were a hell of alot more active than they had been, if this had been any other fish I would have just dismissed it as coincidence but these two had obviously missed eachother and were not happy about being split up

Awsome fish!

anyway onto what I used to keep apart from oscars.....

Had a 3x2 ft tank with around 12 saulosi and 3 yellow labs, beautiful fish full of character, have to say though it was nothing in comparrison to the tank my mates mum has is 6ft and has numerous species of malawi, have to say is probably the most impressive tank I have seen, much prefer malawis to any marine set ups.

Also had a planted tank with a pair of cockatoo dwarfs

The mistake I made was getting rid of my tanks to make room for reptiles, I do regret getting rid of some of them now :(
