16" is suppost to be the max. 12" is more common but most usually stay at about 9". if you get the the flyers youll only be able to have about 2 sengals aswel...how do i post a fish anyways?

well i have nt done it myself
but i think you put the fish in 2 plastic bags in a plastic box with lots of padding i think but ask someone who done it
can i get
1 Oscar
1 sengal
& 1 flyer
or is that over stocking

 

[Dany]

you cant get 1 oscar in there even if you kept it on its own as your tank is only 50 gallons. some say 50 gallons is the minimum but your fish would be very very miserable as it grows to be about 14" and its very bulky messy fish....you need huge filters for oscars no matter how big the tank. you could get 2 sengals and 2 flyers and maybe something else like a firemouth or 2.

2 sengals and 2 flyers and 2 clowns
or
2 sengals and 2 flyers and 2 clowns & 1 common plec
or
