No...I think he needs to be in a bigger tank and I don't have the space for a bigger one...he is about 9 inches long....he has been a good fish...though he likes to redecorate the tank....foxxynhounds

think he'd get along with a 12" oscar? If so, I think I'm game.

Not sure...how is your oscar? Does he eat feeders?
My fish has been in a tank with a large pleco who he picks on and a large snail that he left alone...he has not eaten any live food since we had him and the person I got him from also fed him pellet type food...he has not tried to eat the pleco, he just harasses him...

Our oscar is currently in a tank with a large pleco and some African cichlids (they overran their tank), whom s/he won't touch. Since ite won't touch the 4" Africans, I doubt it'd touch a 9" Dempsey. Sounds like they might get along well. We don't feed live food either, just pellets & the occasional frozen red worms or whatever.
Let me know what you think. There are no eyeless fish in our Oscar tank.
