IN THE WILD OSCARS LIVE AMONG THE TWISTED TREE ROOTS AND OVERHANGING
BRANCHES OF THE RIVER BANKS WHERE THEY CAN HIDE AWAY FROM THIER PREY. THEY
LIVE IN THE SLOW MOVING MEANDERING PARTS OF THE RIVER AND IN OX
BOW LAKES.
THE FORMATION OF AN OXBOW
LAKE
IN
AMONGST THE TWISTED ROOT OSCARS CAN WAIT PATIENTLY AS THEIR PREY SCURRY PAST.
THE OSCAR CAN POUNCE ON THEIR PREY SUCKING IN THE PREY WITH THEIR POWERFULL
MOUTHS. OSCARS SURVIVE ON A DIET OF SMALLER FISH , AND CRUSTACEANS AND DURING
THE RAINY SEAON AN ABUNDANCE OF INSECTS ARE WASHED INTO THE FLOODED RIVER AND
EAGERLY TAKEN BY THE OSCAR.
OSCARS SPAWN DURING THE RAINY SEASON WHEN FOOD IS
AT ITS MOST ABBUNDANT AND THIS, ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT OSCARS CAN LAY UP
TO A 1000 EGGS, GIVES THE FRY THE MAXIMUM CHANCE TO SURVIVE TO ADULTHOOD.
THIS IS A TACTIC USED BY MANY FISH AND ENSURES THE SURVIVAL OF A FEW FROM
EACH BATCH PRODUCED, SO THAT THE SPECIES CAN SURVIVE.
