what other fish can i put with my 8" peaceful oscar and my 5" pleco?

Have you tried any of these fish you mention with your tank? The small cichlid may have been very territorial and not a good community fish.

You could get a silver dollar, but make sure your filtration is at its best.

I have always had oscars and cichlids together. Just get cichlids that are as big as the oscar. Also Jack Dempseys, and yes silver dollars.

is a 90 gallon tank(48"L x 18"W x 24"H), i know it has to be a big peaceful fish, because the oscar may eat it if it is smaller. and i DON'T like the sharks, and the tinfoil barb. btw i CAN'T put another cichlid with him because last time he kept getting harrassed by my small cichlid. so NO more cichlids. i heard silver dollars CAN live with my oscar, but they will DIE, because my oscar is a messy fish and the silver dollars are 6-pack schooling fish that WILL get WAY TOO big(8") for my aquarium(and they are not that hardy as well)
