Oscar fish

I kept an oscar for awhile, however, I am in the process of moving and had to get rid of it because my new place isn't big enough for an appropriately sized tank.

Oscars are fish with lots of personality but I usually call them mouths with fins behind because they will eat almost anything that goes in the tank. Yes I have kept them and even bred them (or rather they bred for me).If you do enough water changes then a 55 gallon tank could be large enough for a pair but not everyone is willing to do a daily water change to keep their fish in good health. I had a 700 gallon central filtration system and the tanks were only 20gallon long tanks but the oscars (15 inches long) would breed for me every couple of weeks without fail. It was not like they were only in a 20 gallon tank but rather in 700 gallons of water.
