g'day all.
I recently picked up a second hand marine tank that I've cleaned out and plan on actually setting it up as a sumped Oscar tank. Problem is, I can't figure out how many Oscars I can have. When I plug the dimensions into the calculator here it comes out to be 130 gallons, just 4.25 feet long, just under 2 feet front to back and just over 2.5 feet tall.
I would really like eventually have a pair of Oscars and maybe a small group of Silver Dollars, but am also fine if I have to only have one big fella (or girl) and then a group of Silver Dollars.
If I can have 2 Oscars in the tank, what's the best way to go about pairing them? get a group of 4 or 6 and let them pair off or???
Cheers in advance!
