It will help you understand what,why, and how a fishtank operates and needs to be setup.

And by the way welcome to the site

Hello and welcome.
I hope the link Miles posted helps you on your way.
If not, we'll try to help anyway we can.
The bullying can be a result of cramped living quarters and a 4 footer will be a bit small for 2 growing oscars.
We advice at least 55Gl per oscar.
Our fish don't grow too big, our tank becomes too small!

Welcome to our community. Regarding your situation, the guys are looking after you just fine. However, you need to read the website as it will give you our opinion of how you should go about setting up an aquarium for an Oscar/oscars

Thanks for all the Welcoming messages guys, ive checked the link out very helpful...i finished work today came home and hes now not picking on him? they seem to be closer now tho.. loool they really are like dogs in tanks maybe they had a tiff and just to state that my Albeeno is around 4 months old and my Tiger is around 8 months old so there not there no that big and i think a 4 footer is doing them just fine atm, but in the comming years i will upgrade the tank for sure, im feeding them on Muscles and Tiny fish, defrosted from the freeza, i just hope i can maintain the water well enough for them to have long and happy lifes
