bright red oscar?

[Connor0729]

apparently if you keep 6 or more they will school (somebody did it on another forum in his 900 gallon tank), so i guess they like company i'd get 2 anyways in that tank. they are very pretty fish.

It was probably an albino Red Oscar as apposed to an albino tiger...Sunshine Oscar I think....

Keeping two together is fine, I've heard that if you don't keep one or two you should get at least 6 or more. Everything I've read said they will fight until their numbers are smaller if you get numbers in between that. My tanks too small so I haven't experienced that but im sure someone on here has.

Yep, 2 will do fine in a 180 as long as you get them at the same time and at the same size.

So it wont matter if i end up with two males?

I think males usually fight a lot, even in a large tank. Maybe I'm wrong.

 

[Fishyfan]

So should i only get one? Is there anyway to sex them?

 

[PoopSmart]

$10 is an amazing price for one.

Tiger oscars here are about 12-14 for a 2-3 incher

 

[HPIZZLE]

yes, but they will fight eventually

Are oscars aggressive towards other fish? Would one do well with a texas and an arowana in a 180?
