Is it ok to keep 2 oscars in a 90g tank?  48x18x24.  I am thinking of getting 2 of them in the future, but I just want to make sure that this is enough room for them.

I've never kept oscars, but I had always herd that you should either keep 1 oscar or 3.  If you have 2, the dominant one will pick on the smaller one more.  If there are 2 less dominant fish, they wont get picked on as bad.....but like I said...Ive never kept them...so im not really sure, lol....just thought I would share that bit of info with you.

Well when my parents 1st got married they had a 100 gallon aquarium underneath the bar between their kitchen and living room and they kept 2 oscars in there. They got along just fine and one never really picked on the other. You can also buy them as older fish who are a breeding pair. They are kinda expensive but worth it when they breed, it's cool. ;D Good luck. :)
