How do you move a full grown Oscar from the upstairs to downstairs safely?

This is not an easy job. Get a clean 5 gallon bucket. Not an old one, but a new one that has never been used. Clean it with WATER. No soaps, no detergents. Take enough water out of the tank to fill the bucket. Place the fish in the bucket. Drain the tank enough to make it light enough for two or three people to carry without dropping it. BE CAREFUL! Once the tank is downstairs, refill the tank. De-chlorinate the water. Add the proper amounts of aquarium salts and Stress Zyme. Try to get the tank refilled as close to the original temperature as possible. Place the Oscar back into the tank and leave it alone for several hours. It will shock a bit, but the fish should be back to normal in a day or two. Oscars are hearty and tough fish. Good luck!
