i had breed in a 700gal tank with a jag pleco tiger x redtail 2 1/2' a silver aro 2 1/2 +' a big ass pacu 3 other oscars and a few other fish and the parents did great keeping all them away i left the fry in till they just started to swim then took them out and put them in a 30 long (trying to get them out sucked the parents keeped bitting me etc..) but they grew very fast on brine shrimp for a week then switched to decp. brine after that they ate all my kulled fish ,bloodworm ,flake and once a week id get a few shrimp from the food store chopped them up and let them at it. as they get to be 3/4" put a few fake plants etc.. so they can hide good luck keep us posted

Thanx meng, and will do,.my tank is not that big so i was able to hide the oscars nest with some towels, they dont seemed to want to be bothered,. this is there first try so i dont know how successful they will be, but an update the parents split a golfish in half was oddest feeding behavior i have seen between oscars have had seven in 10 years.. thanks again!!
 
woke up this morning and all eggs have been eating by parents,.. either they were spooked ( power outage) or they felt eggs were not strong enough,. i feel they will try again very soon,. i have about four big slate rocks in there for them,. and they seem to like another spot, origanly didnt lay eggs there b.c at the time was other fish and a huge sunken air craft carrier,. now its just them and they tryied once,. i think they may feel more confident,.aswell im not goin to disturb them after a quik 10% water change( they made a organized mess for me )

thanks everyone for advise and being curious
 
I have a possible pair as well, and from all my questioning I would think so. Some people said 50 gallons per oscars and at least a 150 for a pair. Your setup seems to be fine, do you have any tips on breeding oscars?

lol tips for breeding oscars is like asking the best place to find diomonds lol. best thing you can do is giv them privacy no bright lights,. a flat rock, aqaurium sand they seem to like better then rocky substarte,... try to mimic there natural enviroment is my best suggestion,. and a water channge no more then 20% or i have herd of ppl making rain in the tank using a pump and bubble hose with holes in,. runn along back of tank and will mimic yearly rain fall? im sorry,. we all kinda helping each other with oscars,. they lot like dogs all different personalities//// thanks again
