I have a 125 gal and right now I have a 3 inch jardini aro, and a Oscar who is about half his size. I am ready to move the Oscar to a 55 gallon, but Id rather not. Who thinks this relationship will last? Will my Oscar grow faster than my aro? So far my Oscar just eats faster and I have to distract him to get the aro food.... I think it will be a neat aquarium if the two end up getting along.

There's a slim chance it could work. It comes down to each fishes personality, and as we all know, jardini's have the most sour disposition toward tankmates past 8-10". (for the most part, a few exceptions.)
I think it just depends on the Jar. Most are verry aggressive, but there are a lot that do well with tankmates. Its just trial and error on the personality of the fish.

But is it a Jar? I have a Silver with 3 O's, but the silver is nothing like a Jar.
Ya, right now the Jar is so skidish I don't think he even cares about the oscar. Past Couple of days they have been together fine. I also have a red tail shark, the jardini has stole shrimp out of his mouth once. It was funny because the red tail is the boss of the tank (very territorial).
time to get another tank ready....lol, I see some fin damage.... I can't believe the Jardini already attacked him....
