This is more of the Ropefish.  He's sort of hard to see because he's always hiding, and when he does come out on occasion, he moves rather quickly to another hiding place.  I'll keep trying for better pics.

I can pet both of them, and do so often to keep them tame.  Their diet varies, with feeder goldfish, flake food, and pellets being alternated.  (I've found out, after the fact that my boyfriend is fond of slipping them a strip of chicken from time to time.)

I will post pictures of the rest of my community fish when they come out of hiding and I am able to capture them on film/disc.

This is my Long Fin Tiger Oscar.  He's one of 4 fish currently living in this 47 gallon tank, complete with hood, cover, fluorescent lighting, and a Penguin BIO Wheel 330 Power Filter.  This tank also resides in my living room.  He and his tank mate,

my Albino Tiger Oscar are about 9 inches long each, not including tail fins.  These guys are so full of personality you just can't help but to love them!

There is very little decoration in this tank, as they insist on tearing it apart.  I'm saving to buy more rock and a few new plastic plants, but they seem to prefer the least amount of decoration.  I am amazed at the coloration in my Albino, as most that I've seen have lost much of their pretty color as they grow.  This guy seems to only get brighter the bigger he gets.   There are still 2 more fish in this tank, but I have yet to get any pics.  I'll try again in the morning.
