    Another Stocking Question

    Hi guys, I was wondering if it would be acceptable to house an Oscar in a 120gal with about 5-6 Spotted Silver Dollars, and 4 or so of a Thorichthys species? The tank dimensions are 4' x 2' x 2' and I feel as if i have more than adequate filtration... my worry is that if i went ahead with the...

    Oscar tank

    Hellooo, I always wanted to have an oscar or 2, I recently found this cheap second hand Juwel rio 450 ( Dimensions are 151 x 51 x66 cm). Now I was wondering if it would be big enough for 2 oscars, a poly or 2 and a clean up crew and which filter would be ideal for this setup? Since I can save...

    How many Oscar's in a 125?

    I am finding a mess of 125gal 6f length 18in width 20in height tanks on Craigslist for 300ish. Would that be a good forever home for a single Oscar? Two Oscars? Or not a forever home for an Oscar, and look for bigger?

    Oscar Cichlid Lost His Mind?

    Hello MonsterFishKeepers, Please excuse me as this is my first post on this forum. I have an Oscar around 12" whom I've owned for about a year and a half now. Like many other New fish keepers, I wasn't aware of the quick growth of Oscars, soI have been playing lots of catch up in that regard...

    3.5'x3.5'x11' tank? HELP

    I am fairly new to fish keeping, but I got myself into a predicament... About two months ago my therapist recommended I get fish to help me focus on something other than myself. Well, my mom came with me to pick out the fish and she saw two baby oscars. I didn't want them at first because I saw...

    Oscar, Jd, help!

    I have a “blue gene” jd, and a albino tiger Oscar. Right now they both are housed in separate 55 gallon tanks, due to the fact that their both only about 5 inches long. My question is, could I house these fish together in a 120 or 125 or would they be constantly fighting? I had them together in...

    mitigating aggression between 2 oscars?

    I'm sure this has been asked before but the search if failing me. The two oscars are still just babies in a 125 gallon tank. The tiger oscar is just a tad bigger than the my albino and he's the aggressive one. Yesterday I introduced 6 Zebra Danios as target fish. (I'm aware that they will be...

    Wet pet for 29 gallon.

    I've been looking for the perfect wet pet for my 29 tall, and I've given up so i'll ask you guys. I LOVE PARACHROMIS SPECIES, but none of them can fit in a 30. But that gives you a genre of fish that i'd like. But yeah, I'm asking you guys (and girls) what a good wet pet would fit in this tank.
