Both Oscars and Red devils get very large. Keeping all but they tiniest ones in a ten will result in stunting, and a 27 will not keep them for long at all. I belive for a single adult oscar around 55-75 gallon is around the minimum, and a Red Devil will need even larger.

EDIT: Maybe a pair of convicts would live in a 27 gallon, so try doing some research on those unless you can find the space and money for a large tank
