We just got a new tank for our Oscar for Black Friday and set it up this afternoon. He is outgrowing his 37 gallon and Petsmart had the 75 gallons for half price, including the stand...so we jumped on it. After a bit of work, I finally got the filter going. It has to cycle and we still need a heater to bring it up to temperature, but he should be able to move into his new tank next weekend.
(He is called Zombie-Fish due to the fact we thought he was dead--he was lying on his side on the bottom of the tank and not moving at all, even when I "disturbed" him with the net or algae -- and then we went out to run some errands and when we came back and he was swimming around, just fine.)
Update: as of today (12/12) we have not obtained a heater, so a bit more wait...
