oscars getting along in tank?

i have a 11" and a 6" albino oscar and red tiger oscar will they fight each other or get along? also do they need a heated tank?

Wha size tank are they in now. A heater is a nice addition this time of year.

They shouldnt fight, they are like lazy cows who eat all day and poop all day. And for the heater question, MOS DEF!

They might get along they might not a lot will depend on their sex.

2 males will almost never get along

a male and a female will get along until spawning time and then the courting ritual can be somewhat brutal

with 2 females they will prolly be happy as cows but in some cases that won't work

so throw them together and watch them to see what they do, if they don't get along you can always put up a divider until you can work out something better.

they may under the best of circumstances nip at each other from time to time they are considered semi-aggressive.

I hope this helps you and if I put anyone to sleep enjoy your nap

my tank is a 55g for now but am in the market for a bigger one. what heat should tank be set at ? should undergravel filter be used and a air stone system also having trouble keeping decor in place with them also they tend to dig holes in gravel what gives with that

Temp should be 78-80. You can use undergravel filters if youd like to but a strong canister or HOB works great. And unless the powerheads are blowing out air bubbles, then you dont need to put an airstone in. And oscars dig because they like to. If you don't like it then have a bare bottom tank or have large river rocks for gravel. And for the decor, get some heavier ones?

no prob with digging just seem to make it mad when i covered it up after cleaning out tank it has since re dug its hole what is a hob system?they tear up every plant fake or real i put in tank and one will eat live fish and the other doesnt seem int.

HOB= hang on back filter. The ones you can get at Walmart or Petco. If you want some decor, I recommend heavy rocks.

i have one hob on back but have considered adding another one to keep up with fish i have a jack and a jap. bass and a couple of other larger fish in with the 11" oscar so prob wouldnt hurt to add another

More filtration = better!

Moved to the right heading!

Oscars are fun creatures. Just watch them closely. They should be fine, but you never know what sex they are until they are pretty big. Hopefully you have a Male:Female or a Female:Female pair. That would be nice.
