We got two Oscars at about the same time as we got the tiny 1" RTC (Lucy)
This was 9 months ago and although the RTC is now in the 14" range...the two Oscars have grown as well and are both well over 10" themselves. they are all still in the same tank by the way and will remain so until the size differantial warrants a change...
