Not sure what it is you're seeing, but they (Oscar & JD) will never breed together if I understand you correctly.... What other fish do you have in the tank???

Yep JD & O wont breed, plus at those sizes they arent mature enough.

i woke up dismorning and found my Oscar dead... the only other fish i have in the tank is a red tailed shark and a silver shark aswell as 4 guppies.

You being serious here..... An Oscar, Jack Dempsey with 4 guppies

*raises an eyebrow at the guppies*

I know I have an Oscar in with guppies at work but thats only because Guppy babies fit through the weir filtration right down to the resevoir tank with the Oscar.... but i dont do it deliberately and expect them to survive! (They are.. there were so many babies the Oscar couldnt eat any more and he is too lazy to chase them!)
