| Nice looking tank I would caution you though that when that Oscar grows up he may not get along very well with the Angelfish. Oscars are normally easy going but will pick on other fish and he will greatly outpace the growth of the Angel.
Looking good though love the tank! Are those Columbian Sharks I see hanging out at the bottom? | |

| one is a columbian shark the other 2 are irredesent sharks. i've been watching the oscars they have not bothered the angels yet, i have lots of feeder guppys in there for them to eat hoping a full stomach will make them less apt to harass the angels | |

| The columbian will get almost 10 inches if it is feed well but those iridescent shark given the room can grow to be HUGE and by huge I mean 3+ feet long and require tanks upwards of 900 gallons!. In an aquarium that size their growth will be stunted but their organ will continue to grow. There is a much higher chance this will cause pre-mature death. Not saying this is what will happen but if you do some research you can see where the concern comes from.
I wouldn't worry about the Oscar right now because he is about the same size as that angel BUT in 6-12 months from now when he is 10+ inches long I would worry. Having feeder fish in there is a good idea but it is funny how many times the food that was suppose to be eaten is not and the other fish are haha.
