Hello

I have 1 3inch Oscar alone in a 55gallon were he will be for the for see able future without tank mates. I currently have 1 eheim 2215 canister and 2 Aqua clear 50 power filters, considering the tank size and the Oscars potential size is this enough filtration or should i add more, as i was thinking of adding a bio wheel or another small canister.

Thank u.:headbang2
 
Or you can get a big canister filter. But the filters you have now would be good for a while. just keep on keeping on the water changes.
 
Filtration is just fine, he should be fine in there for a year or so.
 
The only problem I see is when he's a 12" fish in a 12" wide tank, which will probably happen in the next 9 months. I'd remove all the decor so he has room to swim and increase the water changes as he gets bigger!
