my oscar is a damn glassbanger when u hold food up to his atnk he smashes the tank with his mouth.. and made 8 hole in thte goldfish feeder bag i guess he hungry for feeders lol.. the restt of the fish are doing fine. and in the summer im getting a 75 if i get rid rid of my other tanks YAY!!
 
Cool. It is good to hear from you again CB. You gonna end up getting thew 75 for your oscar?
 
yup.. for teh 75 im gona stock it with 1 O 5 firemouth ( or maybe just a pair of males or females ) a pair of cons for feeders and a male JD or just the O and a pair of jacks dunno yet.
idea A.
1 O
5 fms
pair of cons
a male JD or a femlae dunno

tank B.
1 O
pair of fms
pair of cons
or a pair of JDs

tank C.
1 O
1 male JD
1 male con
1 male fm
and 2 other cichs


so what idea should i go with???
 
and my aunt is getting a 125 for her oscar 3 JDs 5 convicts 1 redjewl thats in teh 55 right now but the 125 is gonna be baught with her taxes.
 
slow down dude lots of type o's

we'll tank 1 wouldn't work to we'll with the pair of cons and it would be more trouble if the firemouths paired up

tank 2 would be a disaster the pair of jackdempsys would wreck every thing the oscar would get the crap beaten out of it and the firemouths would get killed and the cons wouldn't last long also

tank 3 would be your best bet but it would be a little over stocked try a female jack dempsy and you could have two more cichlids males jack dempsys can get 12'' so it an the oscar would be a large bioload also that oscar would be a huge bio load keep in mind they need 40 gallons to them selfs most people say 50 gallons
 
I'd watch breeding with the O in the tank, mine are all bully's but they run for cover when the cons breed, at heart O's are nothing more then push overs they are not near as aggressive as a breeding pair of cons or jd's.
 
none of those ides would really work

i have an oscar with a jd and pleco and even that is overstocked to some people so i would say your oscar with 1 other cichlid like a fm, convict, or jd
 
i like tank 1 but lose the cons... and you will have to watch the FMs if they pair up
