would an oscar and a jaguar work

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yeah but it's a risk I'm willing to take
 
Well I wasn't to sure when I first started the thread but then I started to lean over to getting the jag side ... But no I don't have the jag yet what would be a good name for a jag I was thinking Bruce
 
Depends on the fish. Mine get along great- I have a 14" jag and 2 x 13" oscars in a 180 gallon! (take a look at my thread!). If you do go for it, just keep a eye on them, and maybe put some stuff in the tank so they can have their own territories!
 
jags dont grow that fast you might be thinking about a green terror they grow like weeds but i had a jag for a year and it was only 5" or 6 "
 
I've got it the other way around.. 6" jag with 2" Oscar... They are the greatest friends... for now. Depends on the temperment of your oscar.. may need to split them up if your oscar snaps.. shame to lose a jag

I believe your statement is backwards.
Both my jags went from about 3" to over 10 in 8months (for female) and about 4 for my male.
Have a green terror that has maybe grown an inch in the last 6 months.
 
Also to answer your question. If you end up with a mellow jag i would think youll likely be fine.
The jag should keep up with the oscars growth and tend to easily be able to hold their own while oscars are kind of just big pussies in my experience
