CL> I have a Red Tiger Fancy Fin Oscar. He is about 6 months old and living
 CL> in a 20 gal by himself... I was considering putting a Demsey in the tank
 CL> with him for more "color"... Is this advisable? HE is about 5-6 inches
 CL> long.. Whenever someone besides me comes into the room he lays on his
 CL> side and acts dead.. Is there anyway to get him used to people so he
 CL> wont be such a wuss?
If you add that dempsey, he'll wake up real quick!  At least til he gets 
eaten!  Dempseys are not what you'd call a "community fish".  In fact, they 
tend to eat the community.  Mine has his own 20 gallon tank, that he only has 
to share with a large pleco.
