  • Filtration: High-capacity canister or HOB filter

  • Heater: Maintain water at 76–82°F

đŸœïž What Do Albino Tiger Oscars Eat?

Albino Oscars are omnivorous but prefer a protein-rich diet. A varied diet will help keep their colors vibrant and immune systems strong.

Recommended Foods:

  • Pellets (like Hikari Cichlid Gold or NorthFin)

  • Frozen shrimp, krill, bloodworms

  • Occasional live feeders (only if quarantined first)

  • Veggies like peas or zucchini (once a week)

🛒 We recommend Monster Fish Food Packs for optimal growth.

😡 Albino Tiger Oscar Temperament

Like all Oscars, Albino Tigers are intelligent, interactive, and can be territorial—especially during feeding or mating.

Tankmate Compatibility:

  • Other large cichlids (e.g., Severums, Green Terrors)

  • Large catfish (like Synodontis or Redtail hybrids)

  • Avoid small fish—they may get eaten

  • Don’t overcrowd—Oscars hate stress

🧠 Tip: Oscars recognize their owners and can be hand-fed!

🧬 Lifespan and Health

  • Average lifespan: 10–15 years with proper care

  • Common issues: Hole-in-the-head disease (prevent with clean water & vitamin-rich diet)

đŸ„ We quarantine all Oscars for health before shipping.
