Compatibility brief
Can Adolfoi cory live with Oscar?
Risky. This mix is commonly discouraged for typical setups.
Adolfoi cory + Oscar: Aggression mismatch. Oscar is aggressive, while Adolfoi cory is peaceful. The aggressive fish will likely bully or harm the peaceful one. Real tanks add variables Fishori cannot model; treat this as a high-risk read, not certainty.
Compatibility score
Profile confidence: medium
Order of checkstank volume vs adults → predation mouth gap → temperament / fin nipping → shared water windows.
300L
Combined minimum footprint reference for these two species: about 300L (larger active fish often want more length).
Oscar (35cm adult) may treat small Adolfoi cory (~5cm) as food once grown — plan adult sizes, not shop sizes.
Adolfoi cory (peaceful) and Oscar (aggressive) are far apart on aggression — bullying or injury is a common outcome in average community layouts.

Plan further
Try both species in the full-stock tank check, or open either fish profile for mates lists. Methodology explains how verdicts are produced.
Individual fish vary in personality. Fishori uses conservative hobby rules. Observe any new introduction closely, feed thoughtfully, and keep a quarantine or backup plan. This is not veterinary advice.
Profile data confidence: high. Based on multiple reputable aquarium care sources with strong agreement.
