I'm using an Aquaclear 110/500 and an AquaTech 30-60 on my 55 gallon with one Oscar and a Silver Dollar in it. I do (2) waterchanges per week and take out 35 gallons each time. Works perfectly.

Assuming that the filter in question is rated for your tank, of course I would recommend this filter. I am a great fan of Eheim. They really are the Rolls-Royce of aquarium filtration. I have had four Eheim canister filters and I cannot fault them, they are the best of the best.

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved

Be aware that the ratings on filters usually refer to tanks of normal fish like community fish. Oscars are messy fish and need extra filtration. I would go for a filter with a bigger rating or keep one of your existing filters running on the tank with the eheim. Remember you cant overfilter
