Oscar

Do you think that a 55 gallon aquarium is too small for an oscar ?

Thanks...

they need a 100+ gallon tank.
How big is the oscar?
you can get a little one and trade him in when he gets bigger which takes years.

I had one for 5 years and fed him cat food which he loved

A full grown Oscar needs a 125+g tank.

how big is the oscar you are getting & do you plan on keeping it or exchanging it as it gets to big for the tank
