I know how this sounds.. but is it possible to put a juvenile fish (Oscar)
in a 37 Gallon tank, and then upgrade the tank as it grows larger?
I was just wondering, because I like them as fish but cannot justify to my parents the need to purchase such a large tank 75 Gallons + for such a small fish (obviously it will grow).
I have read that they grow up to 8 inches in one year, so I could probably upgrade to a 75 Gallon by December this year. I understand the issue of stunted fish.
At the end of the day I am just wondering if it is possible, otherwise I will wait until I can purchase a larger tank.
