so i posted a while back about getting a silver arowana, have him in a 125g tank and he has grown a lot(about 10 inches now), but one weird thing he does every once in a while is he faces the front glass of the tank and like moves back ward and forward curving his body somewhat s shaped a few times opens and closes his mouth then he will just go swim normally shortly after.

we've checked water quality and it seems fine and he doesn't do it all the time just occasionally... but i would like to know if this is normal or if this is an issue i should be doing something about.

Thanks

All three of my silvers do that. Rarely, but they do it. I think it's just a strange thing these silvers do.
As long as he is eating nicely, swimming around and growing. You need not worry about it.

hard to grab that moment, but when they do the "s-shape" manouver, they make the best arowana shot! perhaps they just want us to take their pictures.. haha.. :nilly:
