Just a question. Oscar and JD?

[IShallNtEatFish]

Ok so I'm planning ahead here y'all! Can I put an oscar and a Jack Dempsey in a tank together? If so what size would be the best?

 

[Brookster123]

I'm not sure about the pairing but it would have to be atleast 90 gal with some serious filtration..

 

[IShallNtEatFish]

Ya I was planning at least a 100 gallon

Atleast a 4ft tank. 75g and 90g tanks are the same exact size minus a few inches in height. I woulf go for a 110g. They have lenght and width but yes provided enough tank space it will definitely work

 

[IShallNtEatFish]

Yay!!!!!!

 

[jwh0818]

I wish I had my old 110g again. Moved and I couldnt bring it with me

I'm planning for when me and the boyfriend get a place of our own

 

[jwh0818]

110s are odd for sure. They are 4ft long about 25" high and 24"wide I believe. Huge footprint and very heavy tanks. The ine I had weighed about 400lbs? Took 2 grown men to struggle moving it

I think mine was custom made.

Here is some aquariums available new with prices

I want to find somewhere that I can buy acrylic pieces and I can cut them at work

 

[jwh0818]

I think going that route is gonna cost alot more

 

[IShallNtEatFish]

Money isn't gonna be an issue if it means this jacq Dempsey can have her jack Dempsey and an oscar

As long you doin,t have a pair its not a problem. There is a change if you have a fast growing oscar he can eat the jd because jack dempsey do not grow fast. My oscar eat a ob pecock 6 inch they were the same size there is a change. That you lose a fish. Its always a gamble
