    I would keep the osc because when tomatoes form a pair they can become very aggressive.

    yeah mine i call him uno and he is the craziest fish i have ever had .I read a article about how having at least one aggressive fish keeps the other fish from being bored . A tank with no predators or aggressive fish doesn't allow the fish to act natural as the would in the wild thus creating "The Boredom Factor"
