looking good on your oscars. but do take a look at them, the bigger they get the more territorial they'll be. my cousin bought two oscars once. one grow faster than the other one, then the bigger one ate the smaller one. o.o it's all about space. how big is your tank?
and how do u know their sexes?
 
why do you have what looks like a RTC in a 20 gallon ?

+2 i hope u have some indoor pond or anything. tht tank is way too small. if i were to keep a rtc i would only keep him in a tank temporarily, i would nver let it suffer in a tank tht small forever. instead i would transfer him to my pond. sorry to say though, looks like he is your favorite fish (referring to your avatar pic), but u have to let him go somehow.
 
nice rtc how many months till they reach 18 inches cause i got 2 at 2inches and 1 at 12 inches altogether 3 in total
 
I got mine in July and by august he was around 9 inches and late October to early November he was around 18 inches so from July to November he grew like a weed I had threads up about when I got him he was only an inch or so now he is around 2 foot

It's a very very very long story but to cut it short he was in a 180 it got a slow leak and all of a sudden one night it busted along with my heater he was still alive and I was forced to move him in a 60 gallon as shown above until my heaters arrive later today to heat my stock tank/pool I have a stock tank/pool which is round and 8 foot on diameter 3 foot deep I just didn't have a way to heat it so now when the heaters come in later today I can heat it and he will then be happy again in a 630 gallon stock tank he is only in this 60 for his 3rd day or so until I get the heaters I have other threads out about it don't worry I have massive Space to keep him I am not I repeat am not keeping him in the 60 for longer than today it was just temporary because of a long line of bad chain reactions tank busted heater busted so I guess there is no better time to put him in the stock tank/pool once my heaters arrive

I've been calling it a stock tank because some of you who aren't in the us might not know what I meant by temporary pool I guess its a temporary stock tank don't worry he is not staying in this long either I am in the process of ordering a 1,230 gallon tank just need to choose my filtration don't worry I have things covered don't worry guys wouldent have got him if I couldent handle him ImageUploadedByMonsterAquariaNetwork1389628716.762356.jpg
