Question
what dose a africon oscer look like when it pregnit

Answer
Hi Jamin,  
 Oscars are from South American, not Africa and they don't get pregnant as such. They are egg layers.  The female lays her eggs on a hard surface, such as a rock or the bottom of the tank, and the male fertilizes them there.
