Oscars grow quite rapidly and will eat or kill any fish smaller then them unless the other fish are more aggressive. A 55g is a minimum for one oscar as they can reach 14" and are a very messy fish. If your fish are small they will be ok for now but you will need to be looking at other homes for your fishys in the future, i wouldnt add anymore fish unless you could move your oscar. Goodluck! Hope this helps
