So I have this 125 US gallon, with 2 beautiful 5-6 inch Oscar and a black blind Endlicheri bichir, also albino Senegal . I first started with 1 Oscar, then I got an albino Senegal as a test trial to see if my Oscar would show any aggression when they were smaller but no it did not, so then I got another Oscar and nothing. after a while I got the Endlicheri, and I was going to re home the Senegal but I was not able to catch it in this big tank. So I left him there and so far a few months later neither Oscar’s messes with bichirs nor the other way around. Both bichirs are always together in a cave and come out during night time to feed. Now lately I have seen some aggression between my red and my albino Oscar. Seems that my (smaller) red Oscar is dominant than my albino, and pushes him to the cave with the bichirs. But is there any chance that Senegal might make it once they all get bigger? Or shall I rehome before anything gets bad? Also would Ash be a nice name for the endli, it seems to be missing one 1 of his eyes or both so due to that reason he stays in that blackish grey ish color, when I first saw him in the store I thought it was a rare endli because they had him in a very light colored tank but he was so darn compared to the others endlis. Someone had gave him up like that at my LFS .

I had 10 giant danios grow up with two 2-3" size oscars. At the 3 year mark, and over the course of 3 weeks, I had 0 giant danios in with 12" and 10" oscar.

Just because it works now, doesn't mean that at any time it won't work later on.
