How many Oscars?

[n-e-w-land]

Hi,

How many Oscars can I have in a 160 gallon tank with a stunted texas cichlid a firemouth, a gt,Jack Dempsey and a syno. I already have one oscar with these fish and have little aggression how many more oscars can I add? I was kinda hoping for 2 or 3. Could this work? All the fish are under 6 inches at the moment.
Thanks Jake

Add just one since you already got one.

Ok, would there be fights with 4 or just too much load on the filter?

 

[haynchinook334]

Four would work to, if you like...

What kinda filter are you using?

I have an Fx5 and a little eheim powerball, I also have a rena xp2 which I could use if need be. I also have a small 15 gallon tank, could use as a sump? Would a pond pump and bucket loads of media suffice?
