with an oscar, less than a year, prob like 8 months and you'll be upgrading, but Green terrors have more personality then the JD normally and should be fine in a 55, a red devil will prob be fine in there for a while, but will eventually need a lil more room, the thing that is killin ya is that 12" footprint. Maybe a blackbelt cichlid.

blood parrots and red devil are awsome! you should raise them but the red devil will need more room when it grows. they also have very pwnage awsome personality!
how can one oscar live in a 55, a full grown oscar is longer than the tank is wide, keeping an oscar in a 55gallon for life is cruel, maybe as a grow-out.

Too big, 75g is good for these monsters. a 55g is suitable for an oscar, just have extreme filtration
Pretty much look at anything w/ an adult size of about 10" the only bichir i'de even consider doing in a 55 would be a Senegel. and then i'de prolly get like 3 =D
EDIT: and I will disagree w/ those saying a 55 is acceptable for an Oscar full size. I've seen it, and imo it's cruel.

I'd like to hear how it is suitable for an adult Oscar in a 55 gallon tank.fishaddict401;3648936; said:
