Here's my O, he's in a 6' 125g with 4, 5" Silver Dollars...He's about 12" and I've had him for about 3 years now...was only about 2"s when I picked him up. Have to agree with reefwars, they are great fish and get to know thier owners...Oscars require a large tank though, as a general rule of thumb = 50gal per fish (read: high bio load) and I don't think I'd keep one in less than a 75g...silver dollars make an excellent dithering fish as long as they are bigger than the O's mouth (x2) but are dumb as rocks (8gal per sd), thay also get along great with pleco's...



some of my Mbuna (rock fish) South africans in a 50g breeder...



and some s.african lk.vics (dayglow) in another tank...
