The cichlasoma genus of fish is a genus of fish species that incorporates a large number of subspecies. All these fish are quite large and thus they make good companions for the Oscar fish. So really what I m trying to get across is that even though catfish are a good tank mate small catfish like Pictus species that don t grow much more than 6 inches could be a problem

The most widely-spread cichlasoma are the cichlasoma amazonarum cichlasoma bimaculatum and the cichlasoma trimaculatum.

Oscar fish The other cases involved the oscars owner having to manually remove the fish from the tank and use tweezers to get the catfish out of the mouth of the oscar. What are oscar fish Oscars also known as astronotus ocellatus are cichlids native to south america. One of the largest species of cichlids an oscar can grow up to 14 inches in captivity.this fish which is sometimes called a river dog has the capacity to form a close bond with its owner and will wag its tail even just like a dog These fish grow fast but when they are young could easily be eaten by an adult oscar. Be wary of this choice in dither fish. Giant danios devario aequipinnatus 75 gallons. Giant danios are another decent choice for dither fish. They are small but very fast.

They are also schooling fish and due to their small size should be kept in a Some of the medium sized pacu can also make good companions for an oscar. If you do want to keep your oscar with other fish the fish should either be raised together or should be moved into a new fish tank together so that none of them have an established territory. Finally remember oscars are beautiful living creatures. Oscar fish is one of the most beautiful fish found in the tropical region of the world. They belong to cichlid family and their scientific name is astronontus ocellatus. This tropical fish is known for its aggressive and dominating nature. As they scare the other companions of the aquarium it is better to keep them away from the other variety. Remember oscars and small fish don t mix you may want to consider adding some tank mates in with your oscar if your tank size permits it.

Please do not go out and buy the first fish you see careful consideration must be taken when choosing tank mates for an oscar fish. Sucking cat fish is a bit too vague if it s a pleco or sailfin that would be ok too if you have a big enough tank. A red devil would be a big no no. Most of them are way too aggressive for an oscar and and oscar is not physically equiped to deal with the onslaught of course there are exceptions but 95 of the time that o wouldn t survive imho . Oscar fish aggressive nature can cause tank mates to live in fear so choose passive fish. A few good examples include arowanas bichirs convict cichlids firemouth cichlids green terrors jack dempseys jaguar cichlids sailfin plecos severum cichlids and silver dollars.
