Im getting a 180 gallon tall tank, and i have 2 oscars one is 10 inches the other is 9, and was wondering if i would be able to put in smaller oscars in with them, Probably the 5-7 inch range unless i can find them bigger somewhere this is the largest ive seen.
 
well i had a 7 inch oscar in my big tank and i had two smaller oscars in a smaller tank who were about 4 inchs. i decided two put them in and take a chance and they lived for a long time execpt one of the smaller ones (witch are about 9 inchs now) got killed by his brother and my jack dempsey probably for teritorial reasons. but yeah its up to you if you wanna try it but it might not work cause all Oscars have deferen't personalitys but it just so happens that my bigger oscar was very peaceful and nice.
 
I put my 1.5" red oscar in with my 10" oscar with no prblems, there not in the same tank anymore though they started to fight really bad after 6 months.
