CichlidFish.com - Fish That Think.

hi gang, need some good advice. i recently brought home a 1.5in albino oscar who shares a 50 gal setup with a 6in plec and 2 3in clown loaches. the problem is he is being picked on by the other fish, they have always done it to fish smaller than themselves but i thought oscars being notoriously tough would take it. im thinking of moving him to my fiances 20 gal comunity setup untill he gets a little larger, then try him back in the bigger tank is this wise ................................................

he might try to attack the other fish in the 20g depending on what kind they are.

You might try putting in a divider, untill the O grows a bit. In a comunity tank he might just decide his tank mates look like dinner. In a month or so, he should be big enough to take care of himself.
