Red Chili Oscar Cichlid
The Red Chili Oscar Cichlid is a spicy variant of Oscars that will look very bright in your aquarium. Unlike some cichlids, it is difficult to determine if your Oscar is male or female. They can grow to the length of one foot, so be sure to add them to a large enough aquarium of at least 70 gallons. Also use caution if adding to a planted tank because Oscars are known to dig plants up. If a planted tank is the desired environment of the hobbyist, try recommending potted plants or using rocks to anchor the plants down. Oscar Cichlids are aggressive so use caution when choosing tank mates because anything that can fit in their mouth may become a meal. Provide a mixed diet of meaty foods for continued health.
