i would have to disagree with john on this one. 300 litres works out to be about 65 imperial gallon. the MINIMUM recomended size for one oscar is 55 imperial gallons. to comfortably house 2 oscar for life you would be looking at at least 90 gallons. in a tank your size i would go with only one oscar and a smaller tankmate.



just my opinion
Warning..I will offend you at some point!!!


my goal is simple a complete understanding of the universe, why it is as it is and why it exists at all

300 liter size tank is basically 78 US gal size and can accommodate 2 small oscars for the mean time but not for life as what necromancer4 said. oscar is a fast growing fish & 78 gallon size tank will not be enough after 6 to 8 months unless you want your oscar to have stunt growth. good filtration system plays another important role.
