This is Jesse's fish. He is about 6 in. long. When he sees you coming with food, he gets all excited, just like a dog. If you move the food can back & forth in front of the tank, he will follow it. When you feed him, you have to hurry up and put the food in and shut the lid, or else he will jump out of the tank and land on the floor. He also picks up the rocks on the bottom of the tank, like he is doing in this picture. He sucks on them?/gets the food or dirt off of them?, then he spits them out. Quite fun to watch this guy. I just wish that someone would clean the tank!

Such a cool picture. And, that is one strange fish that you have there...do it have a name?
What kind of fish is this?
The fish is an oscar. Not sure if he has a name - probably Oscar. He was about 2 in. long when we got him 4 years ago - he's huge now. Jesse & his friends put baloney on a string and go fishing for him. Crazy!
