If you were to upgrade, a pleco or a large catfish usually are the recommended tank mates for a large oscar. You would need a tank twice the size for that though.

You are really with the limits & an Oscar needs a 75 gal. tank. http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/s8xi5heh/my_photos http://www.geocities.com/s8xi5heh/classic_blue.html http://groups.yahoo.com/group/buzaqq/ http://www.deathbydyeing.org/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com
