about oscars

[bichir_first]

with a 20gal tank could i put a 2" oscar and my 2 bichirs would they fight or what?

 

[south coast nelly]

is this a very temp solution?like a week?
very poss the oscars will fight<no space>
how big are the fish in question

 

[bichir_first]

there all about 1-2" very small

............. this would last for a month. ethier ur birchirs will find away out of that small tank and prob die on ur floor, ur oscar will have dinner, or ur oscar will die from stress bc he has noweher to go.
20g is barley big enough fior 2 birchirs...

oscars grow pretty fast

 

[fishtankdork]

they are all small but in 3 months they won't be.

 

[bichir_first]

in three months i will be able to afford a bigger tank right now i can pic up a 20 for like $20. so i was thinking about getting another fish. but i can wait if u think its a bad idea

I would wait until you have the bigger tank first.

I would wait until you have the bigger tank first.

I agree, save you money and wait and get the bigger tank then the fish...

Definitely wait...you'll also get better growth out of your oscars in the bigger tank. I've got a 8 month old oscar in a 75g that I've had since it was about 2" long and now he's about 10-12"...
