Just wondering if a 90 gallon tank is big enough for 2 oscars.
 
How do I put this. 90 gal with heavy filtration will support 2 Oscars. The question will be will the Oscars be ok with each other. each Oscar has its own personality . I have had 4 Oscars in a 125 no problem. I also have had Oscars that woun't tolerate any Oscar with it'. The Oscars I have now lg. ones are always on a Mexican stand off. I have always found that the reds and albinos to be more tolerant of each other but no guarantees. Sorry its a crap shoot!
 
Thanks for the advice i'm going to give it a try and see what happens.
 
So I should only get one. Is there any other fish I can have in the tank with it?
 
Common PLecto. Lg usualy no problem. They have the means to defend them selves. In my tropical pond I have 3 Oscars, 3 overgrown bala sharks, ex lg. kissing gouramis, 1 pr lg red parrots, 4 15 plus inch plectos, 4 bullsesye cats. This combo would not work in a tank. The only ones that bother each other are the Oscars, there always to busy chasing each other they don't bother the other fish. Plus they get a lot of crayfish to play with.
