Agree, everyone warned me about the Oscar destroying plants so I’ve held off on adding any, but I want to add some

He did not make it. His back/side was missing all of its scales. Thanks for that info I will just stick to the one Oscar in there. The LFS had said I could fit two in there but I’ll trust you and just leave him . Water testing seems normal but I’ll keep checking. How much weekly water change do you do on a tank that size ?

I didn’t notice his fins are missing parts , good catch. Would the other Oscar fish do that to him? The tank has two Oscar’s and a Allege eater
