oscar with arowana good or not?

[MHcblues119]

okay so i have a 3-4 inch tiger oscar that is pretty agressive has eaten a 5 inch great danio
a albino red tail shark
4 tiger barbs
and 2 chinesse algea eaters

well my question is can i get a jardini arowana to keep with him

and if i get a jar wat should the size be around

 

[rallysman]

The jar will need to be a good size 10"+ or the Oscar will probably bully it. The chances are slim of long term compatibility.

 

[MHcblues119]

realy the jar should be bigger i thought jars were really aggressive also

 

[rallysman]

They are when they get bigger, which is why it is iffy on if it will work or not. When the jar is small, the oscar may bully it. When the jar is large, it may bully the oscar.

it would work just fine
i see it done all the time
i dont no why rallysman is against it
u should make sure that the jardini is a bit bigger tho

Before you buy a jardini to go with that oscar of yours, I suggest you read the following "sticky" thread about jardini tank mates;

I'm not against it, but it's wise for him to proceed with caution. If it was a silver I would be singing a different tune.

Could you like me to some of the oscar/jardinis that you see all the time? I can't recall any.

I have had a Clown Knife and a Jack Dempsey together for 2 years and they get along fine.
