Large oscar help.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Post a few pics of your tank. You can easily put a few rock caves in a 3 foot wide tank, which should help limit the aggression. My larger Midas never claimed the entire territory of 500 gallons, just its cave. It doesn't bother the other smaller Midas, as long as it stays away from the cave of the larger one. I suggest providing as much hiding spots as possible, so that each one of the Oscars can claim there own territory.

That's a good sign. I was going to amend what I said earlier, to monitor and give it one week. If things improve you're good.

Update on my oscar situation, seems both of them have accepted each other and are now co existing and eating fine and swimming together. No incidents since night one. He no longer sits in a corner they both are out and about swimming around! Thanks for all the tips fellas!
