Product description

Lemon Oscar (Astronotus ocellatus)

The Lemon Oscar stands out with its bright yellow coloration, offering a unique twist on the classic Oscar. This vibrant variety is highly prized for its striking color, bold personality, and interactive behavior. Like all Oscars, Lemon Oscars are known for their intelligence, often recognizing and interacting with their owners.

They require a large aquarium with excellent filtration, stable water conditions, and plenty of open swimming space. Lemon Oscars can be kept alone or with other large, compatible tankmates.
