Super aggressive, minimum of a 75g to themselves. Tank mates are hit or miss - if trying to have tank mates make sure that they are the same size or larger. Seen sites state that 14" is the max and others that say 18" is the max and some stating 75g is the bare min and others stating 125 is the bare min.

So basically it's a big mean fish that won't really tolerate tank mates...but it does grow smaller then a Pacu :D

What size tank/tank mates you going to house with it?

Here's a MFK thread regarding to what people are keeping them with and in what size of a tank.
 
Thanks guys, a quick response to answer my question!
I have a large Oscar in a 150 right now, but I am probably going to take him to a local petstore to see if I can get some sort of trade back out of him lol
