That is a debatable assertion. Schooling like minnows, barbs, danios, tetras? Clearly not. That they hang out in oscar communities in the wild sure, but calling them "schooling fish" is not entirely accurate. Also, a very impractical proposition for most home aquarists. Oscars can live long and happy lives all on their own.The Oscar is a schooling fish, best kept in groups of six or more. Maybe a bigger tank would be more appropriate for your oscar(s).
