This is my second thread here and I want some people more advanced in the hobby to tell me about my stocking and if its wrong how I can better it. I have 75 gallon tank with a oscar a jd a Texas and a African clown knife. My filters are some cheap thing that came with the tank when I got it I think it's from Walmart I also have ac 50 and a biowheel 150 on it
75 gallon stock

Those fish grow to a pretty good size. Oscars are messy, super messy. I don't have a lot of experience with jack dempseys, but I know the Texas and Oscar both grow to at least a foot. As far as compatibility I can't tell you much, but as far as bioload, it's a lot. And not much space for full grown adults. I wouldn't put more than just an Oscar in a 75 by himself honestly.
i think just 1 large growing fish will end up owning the tank.texas can get mean,each fish can have varied aggression.when those fish get to 5 or more inches they can change/get worse.i would upgrade the filtration to about 750 gallons per hour.example: if you get an AC 70 that is rated for 300 gph.then add another filter with a gph of 300 or more.i have 2 ac70 on a 75 with 1 10 inch fish
Well the oscar and ckf have new homes with my cousin. I will take the advice and upgrade my filtration on my next pay check. Thanks for the advice guys
