How long could and oscar stay in a 55?

For the stock I want I don't need any more color.... got that covered with 2 severums, clown loaches and a green phantom and oscar (possibly)

Than get an eel

I can honestly dig a pond in the backyard,put the Oscar in there and it still wouldn't be satisfied,I am reaching the point of just giving the Oscar up.

Well maybe he would love a pond, or maybe he just wants a mate

I tried that already with a mate,that didn't work out too well.

Well I bought one today..... It's not a tiger, but a red. I thought it had the best coloring of any of the oscars available (best looking red I've seen) and he seemed to have the best personality.

I'll post pics in an hour or so. I stirred around a bunch of gravel on accident so the tank is kinda cloudy ATM.

thats why I love it so much, its a red, but it looks very similar to a tiger, its like a tweener IMO.

If I can somehow get a good pic of his side, you'll see what I mean
