I picked up another 75 gallon today to rescue an Oscar. I don't really want another lone fish because my buttikoferi is already solo in A 75. Ive been told I could probably throw a convict In with this guy. Seems like it could be an interestig pair. Any thoughts?

A female will likely be eaten or killed. Even a full grown female can be eaten by a 12" Oscar. (I've seen it before) a full grown male would have better chances of survival if any. Either it could end badly but it's a hit and miss. You won't know for sure till you try.

I agree that's why I said its hit or miss. I've seen oscars live with cons comfortably then there is the aggressive ones that would take out a con in minutes.
