here is a question, not made to make you guys mad, its about angel fish

[Hans]

suppose i put a one inch oscar in with a 2 inch wide angel, would they grow at the same rate?

I have an oscer and angel fish in tha same tank untill my 55 gets set up. The Oscer seems to grow faster than my angels.

You might get better response from the AC Cichlid forum since you are asking a cichlid question, but I vote for the angel growing faster, unless the angel ends up as oscar chow

I am not sure how fast the angel grows, but you can expect the oscar to grow 1" per month, so I doubt the angel will out grow him unless it reaches full size in 5 months.

I would suspect oscars grow faster.....


maybe

Oscar will out grow the Angel. Will be bigger in 2-4 months, would be my guess.

I've heard that if you keep angels in mid 80F temp, they will grow like crazy.

 

[delmore]

As far as height goes, not overall water displacement or length, the Angel should grow faster. At temps of 84 with clean water and lots of food, they do grow VERY rapidly.

Angels do grow fast but I wouldn't expect one to keep up with the 1 inch per month of an oscar

No way an angel will keep up with an oscar. Even in 80 degree water. The angel will soon become oscar food.
