    If you are saying that you are going to put Oscars into a planted tank ? Fo4r what its worth this is not a good idea oh they may do O.K for a little while as small juveniles but when they get a little size and age then they will tear every plant and move gravel like a D-9 Caterpillar

    Ya the oscars where in a 20 gal on the floor all day while I rescaped.
    So for they love the plants but as they get older if we start to have problems with the plants we can move them to our 29 we have with the barbs and tetras.

    I planned a little ahead on that one.
