Oscar fish?

[LawOne]

Dude if you want an oscar just get it. All these guys have kept one (probably more than one- be honest) in a 55 gallon tank so just do it. Oscars are cool and if it gets full grown it should stil be able to turn around. Heaven forbid if it gets bigger than 12" then you could get a 75 gallon tank. It's one of the nice little problems of having to upgrade.

you can make your own... or i could make one for you and send it then just get a pump and hook it up. pumps arent expensive. just make sure you get one for an aquarium your size... also you will need to get a better light... and those are expensive... good luck!

A bigger light?! The one I have now lights up the entire room...
