how about a tiger shovel nose or a red tailed cat they probely will out grow your tank but they would be fine for a while my tiger oscar and my RTxTSN are best pals the oscar sleeps next to the RTxTSN BUT


so what would i do when they outgrow my tank????
 
well you could sell it of buy a bigger tank second hand or make a ply tank or you cauld make it a pond thirs plenty of things you could do but i wasnt telling you to buy one i was giving a sugestion my RTxTSN is in a 300g tank in my garage whitch he will out grow so i will build a bigger one but its your choice what you get sorry to offend you :chillpill:
 
only giving a sugestion for your 55
idea (1) you could do a planted discus set up with bog wood and plants with a nice big shoal of runne nose tetras
idea (2) 2-3 parrot cichlids 2 cigar sharks some medium gouramis like a opaline or a gold gourami
idea (3) 2 needle fish and a butter fly fish
idea (4) 3 silver dollars 1 red tailed shark 4 rams
idea (5) 3 red bellied piranhas

I like parrot idea. Go blood parrotz!!!!
 
i would love an aro, but this is the largest tank ima have till after college, so i they need to be in here for life pretty much, I do like the blood parrot idea for the 55 once my oscar is out of there, i do almost have 2 small firemouths in it with him

I've keep oscar and parrot together and with firemouths ans its all fine.

favorite fish would be
1. oscars
2. parrots
3. etc
 
I would get two or three oscars, i do like them, and a few four line pimelodella cats, they look alot like pictus, but from my experience get a little bigger then pictus i believe up to 10-12"
 
the parrot i have is 8" and lives with 2 cigar sharks and some opaline gouramis some parrots live ok with bigger fish but some live better with fish that are much smaller than them wen i bourght my parrot it was in the tank with an oscar and some cigar sharks but i wouldnt mix them with oscars
back to the cat fish you could do mabe a Upside Down Cat
or a Raphael Cat
