    Re: big fish !

    do a nice big cichlid tank! With that size tank you'd be able to do a huge community. There are larger cichlids other than oscars. Venustus, Frontosas, many species of Geophagus. That size tank would also make a great Saltwater Fish only tank. A couple of angels (my fav is the emperor angel and queen angel) might work if ya went that way.

    Well keeping the oscars in a 65 gallon tank won't work. I'd suggest getting the tanks required for the fish you have now before adding more monster fish to your collection.

    In my opinion, 100 gallons or more. They get big, and need room to turn around, eat, sleep, and terrorize the neighbors. Don't know about you, but I don't like living in a closet. ( that's just a comparison ) :)

    If its one male and a female a 90 gallon tank is the minimum I'd suggest.
