Oscar: "Mmm...lunch!"

Your oscar is very pretty. I wish I could have one but I only have a 30 gal. The albino oscars at my LPS are so tempting.

Yea, you could try removing the divider and just kind of monitor their behavior together. But your oscar could be like my orangefinned loach and behave nicely when you are looking, but as soon as you leave the room he will rip the fins from other fish. I had to get rid of him.

He was caught on hidden camera! I would watch him because I knew someone was picking on the smaller fish so I assumed it was him (he was the only semi-aggressive fish I had in my community tank). But when I stared at the tank he would stay in "his" log and when he came out he would just swim around by himself. Then I would kind of turn around (but still looking out of the corner of my eye) and he would chase any fish that got close to "his" log and nip their fins. So I set up my boyfriend's video camera and left the room. Played it back and we quickly found out who was snacking on everyone else's fins. We returned him to the LFS we bought him from that day.

He become really good he was back to being pure black and his fins were back to being really long! then the midas knocked over the divider and started to fight once again so the shark is back to being ripped up but he did bash the midas pretty good as well, i set up the divider again and lodged rocks up against it to make sure there is no chance of that happening again.

That thing is the devil. I hear they eat black sharks in some countries. You could probably teach him a leason by sending him there with a pair of chop sticks!
