i have 2 juvi oscars with some africans in a 55gal tank.. the oscarss are about 6 months old i'd say 10 in long 5-6 inches tall...... they are beginning to go after some of my africans they've been living with for a while .. im assuming now that they are big enough to be bossy they will be... i have 110 gal tank with 1 oscar in it.. hes an old oscar about 15 years old (hes about 3x their size).. any change if i put the juvi oscars in their they will coexist and not fight to the death?
 
hes not 3x's as long lol... hes prob 5 inches longer but hes about 5 inches taller and his head is about 2 inches wider... so id say the weight difference is atleast 3x... not the overall length
 
The large Oscar probably will go after the juvies but you have to try it... If you leave the juvies with the africans you will eventually have no africans..

P.S. The 55 is too small for the Oscars when they are full grown
 
i tried it and WOW... the juvi oscars in the 55 look like a decenet size i put em in 110 and my big oscar drawfed the lil ones i had to put them back... i took a pic on my phone i'll see if i can upload it... the big oscar was not a happy camper
