Hey guys I need your help my Oscars are going crazy over my cichla in my 125 Gal and I don't have any space to keep him.
guys I need your suggestions as quick as possible.
His body has scratches in white shade and this top find are becoming pointed rather than being all connected.
Guys tell me ways to keep the Oscars low in aggression in the tank or save the peacock bass from the Oscars.
Please help me guys.
 
Get a divider. Can get a cheap acrylic sheet cut to size with caution cups. Done that and worked fine. Some dithers like silver dollars to help spread the aggression. Eventually the pbass will get big and start to bully the oscars.

But you may need a bigger tank once the fish get bigger.

Go to home depot or lowes and get some lighting diffuser, it looks like this http://www.eplastics.com/Plastic/lighting-diffusers/W-EGG-375X2X4?gclid=CLCVvpnGuNQCFRRXDQod4jIMFg
Cut it to the size of your aquarium and divide the tank, separating bass from the Oscars.
125 is not really big enough long term for peacock bass. Oscars are usually not that bad but they can be aggressive, and in a 125, there is not all that much room to run when talking about large fish. My advice would be to figure out a better long term solution, until then keep them separ

I second the lighting diffuser works good keeps the water flowing throughout the tank and is pretty cheap, also can use the left overs for DIY stuff
