i just added the Oscar to the 60g and i moved around the rocks to destroy territory the african cichlid has. as soon as i added the oscar the african ciclid started attacking and the oscar locked lipps with him. will this stop?
oscar and african cichlid are flaring

Sa/ca cichlids and Africans don't mix. In a 60 gallon don't expect it to stop. 75 is minimum for a Oscar by itself let alone a African

With the Oscar still being small I would expect him to be the loser in this, if he gets the chance to grow to a large enough size he will most likely kill the zebra. But he's more likely to get killed right now

Oscar wont kill the zebra. At larger sizes they ignore the africans. If you havent mixed them before you shouldnt assume and give advice on thoughts. If the african isnt dead in the morning leave them. They will be fine.
Things are cooling down now. they are swimming together in a somewhat harmonious way. lol thanks everyone
