Be careful!! You might have some people come into this thread and tell you that you need a 400 gallon tank to house just TWO of those fish!! That sounds like a nice setup you have there. You may have to get some Dither fish though.

Dither fish is a fish that is used to help in the breeding of cichlids. It produces an enemy, thus bonding the two mating fish even more.
IMO, keep JUST the 2 Oscars and the Pleco in the tank. Those are 1 foot or MORE length, massive waste produces, and messy eaters. The Pictus will get eaten eventually and will kill the eater since the sharp spines on the pictus will gore the insides of the fish.
