After a long feeling out period of which plants my Oscar would leave alone. I think I've got my final setup figured out. Now I just have to let it all fill in.

75G

Fish:
Oscar
Blood Parrot Cichlid
3x Tinfoil Barbs (until they get big)
Electric Blue Jack Dempsey
BGK (until it gets big)

Final stocking will just be the jack dempsey, parrot, and oscar.

Plants Ive had success with

Swords
Crypt Spiralis
Italian and Red Jungle Vals (surprisingly)

Those 3 fish will over stock a small 75 gallon. 75 is what myself and most consider bare minimum for the oscar alone, no tankmates. Your proposed stocking will have your fish suffering.
