What are some things I can feed my Oscar?
I have plenty of normal fish food, including these dried shrimp things. I've heard you can feed them things like crickets and peas. Could some one make me a list of things i should and shouldn't feed my fish?

Do: main diet consisting of high quality pellets (hikari cichlid gold is the best) and treats like frozen brine shrimp, crickets, peas, earth worms, baby cray fish, ghost shrimp, shrimp (like from the grocery store, not cooked)
DO NOT: feeder fish, mammal meats (like beef heart)

Crickets are good for sure. I would stay away from feeding them steak french fries and basic junk food, but crickets would make them happy.
