anthony law Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Hey guys, what is a tough plant that will handle being with two large oscars, that's not fake. The tank is 600mm high.??????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 A plastic one :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Caryl is on to it but you might feel like throwing your money at a Melon sword (Echinodorus osiris) or E. uraguayensis (will grow to 6 or 700mm). It is enough to make you religious, just pray that they don't decide they want to lay eggs or you will end up with expensive coleslaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanuts Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Don't know about ocsars but we have found that the annuibus nana does quite well in our cichlid tanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HummingBird Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 I've kept anubis successfully with my oscar, and java fern too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemines Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 probably any plant, suitable for the water conditions, with either an very large root system (pots could be used) or a plant that grows by a rhizome on wood and rocks etc. anubias is good but it grows very slowly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HummingBird Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 Yeah it really depends on the personality of the Oscar. I recently had an Oscar pass away that was totally fine in a heavily planted tank with a variety of plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
