Sex My GT and JD Please

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
IDK if anybody on here uses AqAdvisor, but when I enter my tank dimensions and put my Oscar, GT and Con x Jack (Had to enter it as a JD) it says they'll eventually require 138% of my tank space as territory.. Am I doomed to fail? Would adding something like a Severum or some Silver Dollars help spread aggression? Really want to get this right first time, and my Oscar isn't happy in my hospital tank..
 
A 90 gallon is only realistically large enough for a adult Oscar but young Oscars are sensitive so it won't get a chance to lay claim with the other two in there. Do not add a sev

Why is this? Surely a single Oscar wouldn't fully stock a 90, I see plenty of people recommending 55's for a single Oscar. I just want to find a way to keep the Oscar and GT in the tank, even if I can only keep those two with some dithers.

A 55 is in no way adequate for a Oscar or a adult Gt for that matter. Both need a 90 for a adult singly ideally. A adult Oscar is no small fish and will fill a 90 easily. If you want them in a 90 together I'd suggest just them and some dithered but beware the Oscar will outpace the Gt growth wise and may try and eat it, I've had it happen

55 is not adequate for an oscar. Will it survive probably will it have room to move no way. That is no life for a fish.

You are fully stocked at 90. Oscars have a huge bioload and get pretty size able if you remove the oscar you could add 2 or 3 more fish. The only think I could see you being able to add is something smaller like fire mouths or cons.
