will 2 5inch azuls get along with 1 4inch oscar or will the oscar beat the pbass up
dont worry about the tank size i got a pond for them once they are larger

Well, tank size does matter in this case. If the fish mentioned are in a 30/40gal breeder tank, then of course the Oscar will bully the azuls for food, territory and what have you. Now, if it's a 55gal or so, I would personally divide the tank in half so I wouldn't have to worry about them fighting and such.

I wouldn't do it in a 55g. Oscars can get pretty damn mean in close quarters.
