    so i’m coming back to this video to say this works like a charm. i started feeding pellets when my oscar was around 3 months old and it literally changed his colors completely. he’s about 11 months old now and doesn’t like them anymore but mealworms also enhance color

    This is kinda late but I'll answer for anyone else wondering the same thing. Assuming your Oscar is healthy he's probably on a pellet strike. Oscars are very moody fish it's very common for them to refuse certain foods, mine is also completely uninterested in frozen blood worms. The best thing to do is break them like a spoiled child. My Oscar refused pellets when he was young and would only eat want freeze dried shrimps but freeze dried shrimp aren't a nutritionally complete food like a high quality pellet. So I held fast and would offer him a few pellets twice a day if he would refuse he'd get nothing. Luckily Oscars are very greedy and he accepted pellets after a few days of no food.

    That is completely normal! Oscars and many fish in general act hungry even if they are not because in the wild they need to eat as much as possible one time because food is not always readily available.

    Asthaxanthin powder is not recommended . A very little amount is required and absorbed by the fish so 2 days shrimp in a week is enough and with asthaxanthin pellet is more than enough. Remember food pellets makers know more than fish keeper that's thier buisness.😇 It's good for u and ur fish.
