Oscar tank size

Mitch · Dec 18, 2003

i have a 65g tank and thinkin about an oscar but i was wondering if i would be able to fit anything else in there with it.

For a mature Oscar I wouldn't recommend adding anything else in a 65g tank.

Me niether, a grown Oscar will fill that tank up.

I have an OScar in a 100gal and he takes up most of the room in that so a 65g would be minimum for a adult Oscar IMO

Because a 75g is the minimum size tank for an Oscar.
