oscar and blood parrots

[oscaroo]

I put my 2 blood parots in my my 4 inch oscars tank. they where doing fine for about 5 minets then my 4 inch blood parot picked a fight with my oscar and they started flaring at each other. then the oscar tried to lock lips with the 4 inch blood parot after that I took the 4 inch blood parrot out. then my oscar started chasing the smaller 3 inch blood parot so i took him out to. I think the 4 inch blood parrot was trying to defend the smaller 3 inch bllod parot. what should I do to make them get along if there are any ways. they are all in a 65 gallon tank and i am upgradong to a 75-90 gallon tank. sorry for any spelling mistakes. Thanks and I have a 5 inch common pleco in the 65 gallon to.

Which do you prize more, the blood parrots or the wise Oscar??????????One of the species has to be deleted from the tank or they will rip each other apart...........By the looks of the size of tanks you have, and have planned to buy, I would say stick with the blood parrots and rid of the Oscar fish..........For an Oscar to thrive(live to its full opotential) a minumum of 100-125g is needed for a single or paired Oscar...........

I prize the oscar more and i just moved the decorations around and put the blood parrots in and there was some flaring but it has seemed to stop. and 75-90 gallons is almost 100 gallons.

they started fighting again so i took the blood parrots out i gues this plan will not work
