welcome. i had 2 tiger oscars and they got to about 10-12 " long, they would eat out of my hand, come to the surface if i opened up the tank and were very friendly, they lived with a clown loach, a couple of plecs, some guppies and mollies, but due to thier size we had to take them to a local shop, since then we have got a 100 gallon tank with some red bellied pirahnas in their!!!! good luck with him!!!!!!
