oscar and pb?

[jimmay]

would a 5" tiger oscar be a good tank-mate with a 2" peacock bass?

Sounds like a snack for Oscar.

Or a snack-that-gets-stuck-in-your-oscars-mouth and they both die.

im sure the oscar will be smarter than that.

not at that size buddy. Get rid of the oscar, get the 2" pbass, then go back and get yourself a 2" oscar.

Ever get your fingers stuck in one of those stupid paper finger traps? It's like that. The eaten fish's gills get hung up on the inside of the eater's mouth and it's just locked there. So even though the predator tries to eject the prey, he cannot.
