Default Oscar and Green Terror fighting problems

You could let the Oscars rule the tank for a few days or a week but
that won't guarantee that the GT will behave or that the Oscars won't
beat up the GT. Many of the New World cichlids are difficult to keep
in a community setting.

You may have to choose which species you want to keep.

I have a 125 with 3 large (8" or so) Oscars and 1 full grown Green

Terror
(8") The green terror just beats on the Oscars non stop.There is

also a
bloody parrot fish (full grown also) in there that he doesnt mess

with.Just
the Oscars.I took the green terror out and put him in my 55 with

another
green terror and a dempsey.He isnt acting up yet but hes only been

there for
about 5 mins.Anyone have any more suggestions on how to make him

leave my
Oscars alone?

your telling me!! I have a beautiful midas that has bullied his way into a
solitary 30 gl. If I get to close to the glass he attacks it with no fear. I
can even hear his gill rakes gnashing together!! pretty glad he can't get out,
the murderous *******. BTW, he was originally in a larger tank with an oscar, a
green terror, a dempsey, a G. severem, and get this, a jewel?!? Well, everyone
is happier except the asian tropicals that WERE in the 30, hee hee.
