Best Answer

You may be able to get away with having a Catfish and an Oscar in the same tank, depending on if the Catfish is large enough that the Oscar can't eat him. Though this does not mean that they will acctually get along, cause that won't happen.

A Catfish is the primary prey to the Oscar in the wild, so I don't really see them getting along.

Can Albino Clawed Frog and Albino Oscar live together?

no the Oscar will eat it. i bought an albino clawed frog and my Oscar at it the frog was in the tank for ten min. I had a couple of the albino frogs in the tank with several large Oscars and a synadontis catfish for years. Needless to say when i got the Oscars the frogs were larger than them and unable to eat them so i think that helped a lot. One of the frogs did happen to get eaten by the catfish though when I was transproting them to my new apartment.
