Would a Jardini be able to live with 6 oscars?

oscars are bold and greedy feeders, Jardini will kill your oscars one by one if they get in his feeding area good luck tho.

If this is the case, then would my silver arowana react the same way to my oscars?

Not necessarily....it depends on the personality of the silver, but jardinis are generally wayy more aggressive than silvers. Pretty much everyone I know that keeps jardinis keeps them alone in a tank because they kill anything that is put with it, which is not typically the case with silvers.

I had 2 oscars in a 55 till they beat the crap out of each other so I put one in my 135 with my aro. The problem with the aro is he owns the tank so the oscar, tiger and, severum spend much of the day hiding so, I cannot see 6 oscars together and I can't keeping them "enjoyably" in the same tank unless its 240g or larger. Maybe.

I had a 11" jard nearly kill an 8" O other night but i have kept silvers with oscars no probs maybe if you had a big enough tank and as there are 6 of them the jard wont just pick on one .
