75 gallon for female 125 for male. Way to aggressive for Oscars usually. Tank size for tank mates is 125 and up but preferably larger. Jack Dempsey, convicts,vieja, Texas, amphs are all tank mates they can have. Susceptible to common cichlid diseases

Oh and females can hit 12 maybe more rarely and males can hit 16 plus. Aggressive but can be reclusive. Will destroy plants and move around decor

But the question is can a buy a small one and keep it with my fish

Jags grow very quickly and have very large mouths. I kept one with my oscar but it was a time bomb waiting to go off. I had to rehome. I would not recommend it.

Depending on the fish you have yes but as it grows it may pose a problem

My male is 14" and gets along with an Oscar and a convict. Very mellow. He does however hate my 8 year old son and goes nuts when he goes near tank
