Hello everyone I am thinking of getting an arowana soon and I just wanted to know if there is any real benefit to getting them at a small size as apposed to getting a larger one?
I have seen both 1'+ specimens as well as smaller ones around the 4-6" mark. Is there any benefit to getting a larger one? Personally I would like to get a small one and watch it grow. The fish will grow out in a 120 4x2x2 aquarium.
So here are my main questions
1. Is there any drawbacks to having a smaller arowana over a larger one?
2. anything I should be extra careful of? as I do not want a hundred dollar fish dying on my mysteriously.
If I get the fish I want it to be healthy and live long and prosper.
thanks in advance, rafini
