250g tank...inhabitants?

pricek Mar 08, 2009 08:28 PM

I have a 250g tank with a oscar that is about 6 inches and a pacu that is about 4 or 5 inches.

I realize the size of them, especially the pacu is quite large, so i'm not looking to add a ton of fish to it, plus the oscar is evil and decides to murder everything anyway.

I was just wondering what a good bottom feeder/scavenger fish would be?

Thanks

There are no bottom feeders that would get along with the oscar. Oscars are very aggressive fish, and don't do well with others.

Try a redtail catfish that's what i have in mine but be warned it will get huge and eat Oscar for lunch.
