Really nice arowana, If I were you I would put some substrate possible sand (better looking) in the bottom just to avoid possibility of drop eye. Im telling you this because unfortunately happened to mine.

Your arowana getting DE has nothing to do with the tank being bare bottom.

How big is the tank ?
I love to see Arowanas swim.
When they have to turn after one or two seconds it doesnt look good.
But she looks good and healthy !

I like to keep my tank bare bottom so the tank stays clean and water at tip top shape and plus i wouldnt like to clean the substrate. Too much work i rather have a nice and healthy looking fish haha.
