I didn't mean to say that an Oscar was a peaceful fish.
But at one point i had this Oscar with a Red Devil of equal size and i had to take out the Red Devil within 3 hours. It had almost killed the Oscar.
I hear this is a bit above normal aggression, but it seems that scenarios like this are commonplace, which is the main reason i would've removed the Oscar.
I didn't buy a pair. I bought 6 Texas, so i could be sure to get a male and female, which will either live alone or have a pair of Firemouths.
The 2 biggest look to be male and female though.
Also, any specific ways you recommend creating a spot only for the female? I hate the look of dividers...
As i said, the Oscar is to be removed when it is in danger. The Texas are too small... For now.

In my opinion most Oscars could never stand up to a red devil at the same size.
