Haven't posted pics in awhile so here's an update on my silver aro & tank mates. Had to move my angels cause she was eating them. I also tried to get a second aro but it jumped out of my 75gal grow out tank even though I had it covered with only about an inch gap for the overflow box. $40 down the drain so I'll stick with just one.

Doesn't really look like a grow out because the Silver is stunted or deformed.

Still a nice looking tank with nice looking stock.

Might want to put him in the next tank you have lined up if possible.

Why do u say ots stunted and deformed... It may look a lil distorted from the camera but it looks fine for me

Captive silver aros rarely grow bigger than 24", mine is around 22" & is not even 2 years old. I've seen people that keep two aros in a 125gal which i would consider stunting. I suppose I could remove some of the lace rock for more room & I plan on either moving the oscars or jacks, they always eat all the food before the aro gets the to eat.

Pics are from my phone & aren't the greatest. I also was standing at weird angels to try & avoid background reflections.

I thought you said it was in a 75. Looks very wide to me, but could be your camera like you said.
nice fish nonetheless.

Great looking red oscars and severum. I have to disagree with captive aros not growing past 24" though.
