Well i dont have a website for ya but I can give ya some quick info on oscars. THey get large fast...so make sur eyou have a big enough tank for them. They start off eating regualr chilid pellets when they are babies. They are pretty messy so you wanna clean up after then meaning your tank about every 2 weeks or so. But on the positive note they are very active fish and are awesome to have. Ive had mine for 3 yrs and hes great. Hes so tame he eats outta my hand and i can actually pet him. But they do grow extremely fast. I usually may feed him two or three gold fish a week and the rest pellets just to prevent "hole in the head." If you want your Oscar to grow slower feed him pellets and if you want him to grow a lil faster you feed a little bit more live! Hope all works out!!!

Be careful with feeder fish! They can introduce disease into your tank.
