Discus in Oscar tank with other South American Cichlids 12 6

Discus 12 years ago 8,874 views

This is my 4ft x 3ft x 18in tank, containing the following fish: 5x discus, 4x fire mouths, 2x oscars, 1x golden spot pleco, 1x pleco, 3x clown loaches, 10x scissor tails. Save your comments on the oscars being in the tank - all fish are getting along as they are all juveniles. This is the oscar's tank; a new 10ft South American tank is currently being setup for the discus', scissor tails and fire mouths to move into.

To those that say oscars aren't aggressive I disagree. No not all but I'm cursed with a rogue Oscar and an 8 inch rogue Oscar does damage to a lot. All my intakes are trashed weekly. It Knocks over rocks( same size as the fish) and huge pieces of wood get moved inches in a single freak out session. I do have aggressive fish in with it but its just a mean fish that wants to be in the river not In a 125 gallon tank. I hope the best to this set up though. Its gorgeous. Beware of the OS.

Is is normal for Discus to just sit on plants because at the petstore, that's all they do

love the morons commenting on this video. first off oscars arent aggressive they just eat everything. if they cant eat it they dont care about it. my only question is why would you put firemouths in a ten foot tank? i mean discus are cool but firemouths? why not some severums or maybe even a chocolate cichlid, they arent aggressive but do grow large.

If you had bothered to read the description below the fideo, you might have noticed that it clearly states there's a separate 10ft tank being set up for some of the fish from this tank.

OMG i hope you know this tank is much to small for all the fishes in future?4ft x 3ft x 18in is not even enough for 2 adult oscars... but this video is 10 months old... i think the Oscars have eat all the smaller fish and maybe killed the Discus fishes
