Personally I wouldn't. They'll get very crowded really quick. You're better off getting a larger tank like a 40. Those will need 75 gallons at least.

you should take them out asap. the bigger the tank the better and the more happy your fish will be. i really dont think a 20 gallon fish tank is big enuff for 4 baby rb's

I think your cool for about a month, so start saving your money and buy a 55 gallon tank, but like the other dude said, if fed rite, these bad boys grow fast. If your not interested in doing that, then just experiment with your fish. Overfeed your oscar, give him plenty of feeders, then introduce the red's. Make sure they are well fed also or else they will start nipping. If you don't do either of these though and frankenstein (your oscar) gets hungry he'll prolly suck those reds rite in.
