Hey guys. Question. I have a 55 gallon tank with 1 Oscar a little bigger than my hand a small silver dollar and a placo. Would it be crazy for me to add another Oscar in there? I love my oscar so much. I want another. I am running a Magnum 350 canister on it as well. Any feed back would be appreciated.

It is possible and its likily it would be fine.  I recently added a 4in Albino Oscar to a tank with a 13in Tiger Oscar.  its amazing they really love each other. They have more than enough room but they insist on constantly touching each other.    Its been several months now and they are really funny to watch.    But It could have been bad.  Oscars can be really odd.  Luckily my largest one is not so agressive.
Good luck let us know if you try it  *thumbsupsmiley*

I love Oscars. Mine, his name is Jimmy, he has the personality of a human. He loves me when I give him food and he gets all pissed and acts like he is going to die when ever I do partial water changes or stick anything in the tank. He has been a pain in the poopy but he is great.
