Will your albino Oscars eat there fry?
Oscars are very good parents and will often eat the odd egg if it is diseased or not fertile. They will however on occassion devour all their eggs if they are spooked or conditions in the tank are not to their liking. This is quite common but the pair will often breed again soon after and hatch a healthy brood.
Should you cover your tank for Oscar eggs to hatch?
There is no need. Breeding usually only takes place in a very large tank. Oscars are substrate spawners and will lay from 200 to 2000 eggs at a time. After three or four days, the eggs hatch. The fry is then transported to other location in order to protect them from potential predators. Oscars tend and guard their young and known to be good parents.

What can you do to make your Oscars to mate?
No one can make Oscars mate. Oscars need to be mature and in breeding condition and must also be in a very large tank. They also need to choose their own mate. Sometimes two females will spawn together so their owner thinks they are a pair and then wonders why the eggs never develop into fry. There is no known way to sex Oscars other than by an expert 'venting' them no matter what other people say. Oscars are one of the fish that come under the category of having "No sexual dimorphism".
I have got about 5 platys and 4 guppys in my community tank. Can i put my pregnant guppy into my separate fry tank when i already have fry in the tank will the pregnant guppy eat the other fry?
If the fry are small enough to be eaten by the female guppy then she will eat them. If your community tank is well planted and you have plenty of hidey holes that the fry could hide in but the other adult fish can't enter, then the fry would have a better chance of survival out of the breeding/fry tank. You could also buy another livebearer breeding trap they are very cheap. _______________________________________________________________________ Ya that right they are but you have to remember that what she said is true!
What do you do when your platie fish gets pregnant?
