Convicts are territorial, especially in breeding pairs. While Oscars can be imposing and destructive, they are more hungry than they are aggressive. If the Oscar is small, Around the size of the convict, it may be bullied to death. And if the Oscar is full-sized, it will most likely eat the convict.

In short, don’t do it.😅
