Uh, no its not. Not at all. It barely looks 12 inches deep.
 
Well I had my ZZ FH in with my tiger Oscar. My Oscar doesnt take any crap from any of my other big nasty fish. Holds his own with my male dovii. Depends on the oscar. FH usually like to start the fight. My oscar wont back down if challenged. O's dont have the mouth to lip lock but they are like tanks. They bull doze into their opponents.
 
It can be done in a large enough tank and proper planning-but let me stress planning and large enough tank. I never get only two cichlids I feel atleast 4 is good to spread the aggression.
