and no, I doubt theyll get along AT ALL. Youll probably end up with 1 flowerhorn/dovii cross once the hybrids are big enough to NOT fit in the oscars mouth.

They will not live in peace with the oscars. Even if you have small flowerhorns and big oscars the flowerhorns will end up killing the oscars after a while.
wow coz i have seen video's of these flowerhorns with oscars and they were fine anybody got anymore info i will be thankful
You can try it, but the flowerhorns have to be at least half the size of the oscars to not fit in the oscars' mouths. Of course, by that size they'll be big enough to kill the oscars. Whether or not they will get along depends on the individual fish, and there's no way to tell until you put them together.
hmmm well i am bit worried coz ive had me oscars a long time, and i dont want to mess it all up, and then end up with ni oscars 
it would work out very, very short term. but no, they won't, and no i wouldn't do it.
you could add them as soon as they're too big to fit in the oscars mouth. shortly after they reach that size, they'll start to mature and acting more aggressive.

Stick with your o's if that's what you like. Flowerhorns are cool but they do not mix well with others.MONSTER_OSCARS;4151716; said:hmmm well i am bit worried coz ive had me oscars a long time, and i dont want to mess it all up, and then end up with ni oscars
I keep my fh with a jag, gt, dempsey, oscar, mono pbass and motoro ray in my 180g. All fish are 6-13 inches and all get along thank god. it all depends on the fish and a lot of luck/trial and error...
