pbass vs Oscars quick question

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
mjunior my orinos were mean as all hell, they had fire in there eyes lol

vd keep the pbass well fed and maybe add some stress coat. if you see the oscar is messing with him again then do something about it... little pbass stress easily which can possibly lead them to there death if temp. and conditions arent perfect ;) just watch his back
 
a few hours later, i've placed my 4pcs 4" Oscars in 50gal with the 2pcs 6" Cichla Temensis and they are all doing well. i'll try to observe them for any aggression. i'll post some pic later.
 
Alright, the oscar is way too aggressive. It is not damaging my pbass, but I can tell that the oscar is stressing them out. I'm gonna move the oscar to another tank. Hopefully my bass will grow faster than the oscar, then maybe I can reintroduce the oscar one day...
 
ohh... definitly you will see better colors and growth when your lil guy are less stressed...;)
 
If both are fed regularly the O is going to keep up with the PBass for a little while. The O will put on an inch (maybe a tad more) every month until it hits 9-10 inches. An aggressive 10" O can be a brute to skinny fish.
