And just like that.. Im overstocked

so im at a friends house today, looking in his mbuna tank and i see this guy hiding in a plant all beat up. Long story short, after talking to him and explaining that it wont last in there, i now have two O in a 110g tank. Oh well, i guess it will be time to upgrade here soon.
Here he is, no more then 20 min in the tank and hes chowing down nls.

Nice of you to save the fish and also good of your friend to let you take it.

Nice save, and I think you'll be fine, just stay on top of water quality like always.

Cute little guy! Looks like those mbuna nipped his fins up pretty good. Should heal up good with some clean water. Has the other Oscar accepted him pretty well?

Most (all?) 110s are basically tall 75s, so you have a while. Please advise your friend that those fish were a poor mix.

Yea they were doing well together. The little O is already gone, as of about 10pm last night. My brother had an empty 75, so i sent him with some media and the little O. I was more worried about the female frontosa that is temporarily in the tank with my O. Its my wifes fish, and i have been slacking to set up her 90g since we moved into our new house.

Yea its basically a 90gal with an extra 6" high. Yea, trust me i informed him. The mbuna he has are all adults too. Its a tank i recently got rid of due to just wanting a change. All the fish are 5+ years old then their offspring. My avatar is actually the top dog in that tank still
