I always wanted a setup like that, maybe when I get house.

personaly i wouldn't breed oscars becuause there are so many now and the damand isnt up but thats my opinon but i love your setup im gonna try and breed some fish when i get more tanks
 
Thats really cool, thanks for sharing your pics! I see some power filters on your tanks... but for i would use sponge filters cause you have so many tanks and that would save you alot of money on the electric bills. Just my opinions.
I would want to have a breeding set up someday too! :)
 
I wish I had a decent breeding setup like that!

In the future, try fishless cycling. It's less cruel to fish, and is cheaper (clear ammonia can be found for 89 cents in a 24-32 ounce bottle)- and it's usually faster. Good luck! Here are a few links for you:
