I currently have a 32 gal grow out tank with an Oscar, Jack Dempsey, Turquoise Severum, and a Black Convict, that were supposed to go into a 150 gallon tank. Unfortunately the plan to get this tank didn't fall through, and I was only able to get a 55 gallon... So what I was wondering was what (If anything) could I keep in there with them.
 
I wouldn't get anything else. & the oscar will eventually need a 75g or larger later on IMO. You can find 75g's used on craigslist for around $125 for the complete setup.
 
Nothing...and get rid of:

a) the oscar if you want to be minimally overstocked and
b) either the severum or JD to not be overstocked in a 55g.

This is a great example of why people SHOULDNT get fish in anticipation of getting a bigger tank.
