Hmmm...What were there tankmates? How large was the tank? How Large were the Oscars?


I HATE CAPITAL LETTERS!

 

[kimmybeck]

im sorry abt the cap's...their tank mates were a red oscar and a tiger oscar all of them were the same size abt 3 1/2 inches long...2 jack dempseys....2red zebra cichlids all abt the same length....and all of them are strong and fiesty....i know ur really not supposed to mix but i rescued the red oscars and zebra cichlids from horrible conditions, i had to remove my firemouth which is the same size as the oscars cause he was getting eaten alive and so was my lil green terror...im fixing to get another tank here shortly...
