@lewis9968 no way, the African butterfly has no way to protect itself against an Oscar, even a small one. They should be kept with with peaceful fish who aren't small enough to fit in their mouth. I keep one with my female bettas, and blue gourami, the gourami bugs it on occasion. I tried keeping mine 2 small cichlids(2" fire mouth and Jack dempsey) but I moved it when they dragged it down to the bottom of the tank.
Do they need a filter??

Nice - what do you keep him with? Mine's in a cichlid tank with PH 7.5, although I have ready that they like 6.5-7. What's yours?
