Hello everyone,
My name is Jessica and I have had Oscars in the past but my current Oscar I have had for about 15 months. My husband cleaned his tank on Tuesday (two days ago) and ever since when we turn off the lights at night he will flip out and throw himself around. He has caused several lacerations to the top of his head, his mouth, and his belly. He will not eat either. I am very worried because I do not want him to die. My husband treated the water with algae treatment and I wonder if that has something to do with his erratic and dangerous behavior. During the day and when the lights are on he will just float around, sometimes sitting for periods at the top and sometimes at the bottom. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much.
