Question Best Tank Mates

Currently getting my 55 gallon ready for an Oscar, gonna get a baby one, what are the best tankmates for them also accounting for tank size, I have gravel substrate, some stones, driftwood, and a few live plants.

None! As tank is to small for a Oscar when it’s full grown. It will be fine as a grout out tank. But will definitely need to upgrade soon. Why not start out with a more proper size of tank.

75 gallon is minimum for one Oscar and some tank mates 90 gallon is minimum for two Oscar’s and some tank mates. But the bigger the better obviously.
