Oscars get real big and need room.if you put them in a 40 gallon tank with 4 piranha which also get big they will have no room and will kill each other

First, pay no attention to the icon. Just been dieing to use it since they put it up. Now, with regard to the Oscars and Piranhas; A 66 gallon is still too small for 4 full grown Piranhas not to mention an Oscar.

i would put no more than 2 piranha in a 66 gal. tank or 2 oscar for that matter. you might want to pick different fish as a hobby cause these fish you have high maintenance. and you seem to be a novice at this. maybe you should research your fish before buying them.
