Little (lotta) background:
Ok so I've been through a lot wih my 30 gal tank, what with switching the tankmates, finding what's best etc. But I'm soon to get a 90 gal. I'm looking for what's most compatible with my Oscar, who's currently about 4", and a Managuense (Jaguar) who's also nearing 4". I've also got two 3" Green Severums that I'd like to try and keep in the mix. I recently got rid of my Green Terror, as she was suspect for the scars left on my oscar. I was pretty sure it was the GT, at least, since I've seen the GT and the O lock jaws a few times. So I got rid of her, and now more scars have appeared on my severums. I've heard how nasty Jags get, so I'm now almost positive it is the jag. I think I will have to get rid of it. I picture it getting only more aggresive as it grows, even in the 90 gal.
So, I'm wondering a few things;
- Should I wait it out (a week or so) and see if the jag cools down in my new 90 gal? Or trade it in now...
- What are some good/possible tankmates for an O and 2 severums? My oscar seems pretty docile. Compared to the GT and Jag.
- Cichlids and/or dither fish suggestions encouraged.
Any and all is appreciated, thanks!
