As some of you may know, i was set to purchase a larger fish tank today so i could get my oscar out of its small tank. Well on my way to get this tank(very good deal by the way) My truck breaks down and is undrivable. Then i get a phone call saying that my grandpa had died. All this happend after i was gifted a new oscar from my girlfriend as a nice tank warming gift. I contacted the person asking if i could come get the tank another day. Well said person sold the tank out from underneath me. Now i am in quite the pickle. My tank that was too small for one oscar now contains two oscars. When i first introduced the new oscar... he did not get a very warm welcome from my current oscar. I used BGH's bag trick and it seems to be working for now. They are getting along quite well. I dont know what to do. I have two three inch oscars in a 29 gallon tank and wont be able to do anything about it for a week or more. I have very good filtration and clean the tank very well... so i hope this is enough. Hard times just seem to be getting harder.

2 3" oscar's in a 29 for a week or so will be fine. Do lots of water changes,and keep searching for a bigger tank. I've got an extra 55 gal sitting in the fish room if I was closer to you( I live in upstate NY)

Oh David I am so sorry.... About your Grandpa and the truck... My prayers are with your family...

As for the tank Kepp looking... It wasn't meant to be. Let me know how you are doing and keep your chin up..

sorry for your loss.
they should be ok for a little while, i believe your biggest concerns (as far as the fish go) would be water quality and aggression. so keep an eye on your water parameters... maybe cut back on feeding to reduce waste.

Thank you for your kind words. As it turns out i have another family member very sick with cancer. It has not been a good weekend. I love my fish and i will take care of them as best i can. But they arnt on top of my list right now. Thank you for the prayers... i am going to need them in the coming days and weeks.

sorry to hear about your misfortunes... keep your chin up and im sure things will start to look up for you soon.

sorry for the loss... and condolence.
there must be a reason why things happen that way.
for the mean time, two oscars, 3 inches size could
thrive at 29 gal for the mean time as long as you
keep thew/c regularly and less feedings. (but not for
long). when things had been stable, then you can attend to
it accordingly.

Our prayers for the soul of your grandpa.

Thank you for your prayers Paul, it does mean a lot. I am confident that my fish will be fine for the time being. They have not left each others side since i introduced the new one. They have become quick friends.

Bowhunter, So sorry to hear about your loss. We have had our vehicle trouble too. WE are praying for you and your family, and or course the "O's". Hang in there and things will work out for the best. GOD BLESS!!
