I have a crayfish in my 75 with two convicts and an Oscar. Just fine Everybody has their own territories tho. Crayfish lives far right in a hole in artificial roots. Oscar stays under him at night and the convicts live in a stump far left. I had I add lots of tall plants to break up the line of sight and give hiding spaces. But they all seems fine

I wouldn't recommend adding peacocks with oscars. 1 - that's mixing African cichlids with south American cichlids, 2 - oscars get big and will look at them as a snack and 3 - oscars even small are very territorial, they'll harass and kill the peacocks regardless of size of the fish and the tank
 
Oh my, well i think I'm going to get one peacock and put a divider for a week. I'll get lots more hiding places too. My crayfish haven't touched my neon tetras or gouramis or even tried after the first day so... Perhaps they're too lazy to do so.
 
I appreciate your suggestions but it's worked well in my tank for 8 + months so I won't be changing anything
 
Look who has FINALLY come out from hiding :) he's been camping underneath my driftwood for the past week and a half. He's 1/2 the size of the rest of the fish but is finally out swimming around.
