benno Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Hey mate. Oscars get way too big for a 55. A single male green terror would be fine though. You could possibly even get away with a pair if the female was pretty peaceful and not nasty to the male like mine was but then youl have to deal with fry. I'd steer well clear of ebjd as they are a lot of work just to keep remotely healthy due to the weakened genetics and don't tend to do well with different cichlid tank mates until they reach a pretty decent size.

Bradc Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Id still go easy on stocking it. May have a larger volume but its still only 4ft long. Also most of those listed can get a foot long even firemouths can reach 9 inches. Id stick to a pair of something. Or a small group of firemouths etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
