thanks for looking.
What can I do to help Asian aros scales grow back quicker and healthy.
 
Keeping the water pristine and regularly feeding your Aro nutritious food should be good.
 
Could you recommend any good healthy foods I can use for him. I'm also trying to inhance the colouring with foods as I don't want to tan him.
I'm currently feeding him crickets, mussel, locust and I'm feeding large meal worms carrots before feeding aro

I have a high back red tail gold

You can add prawn meat, earthworms if from a safe source with no insecticides, and if she will eat pellets there are colour enhancing pellets which i believe work well. You can also try putting pellets in the meal worms...

To the best off my knowledge, i dont think you tan a RTG but, im sure more experienced members will chime in, RTG's will develop their colour in their own time...

I'd rather him keep his wits about him chasing live foods round to keep him occupied.
I'd just rather him not get lazy. Just my personal way of thinking.
 
Oh okay.
 
No offence intended.
I've heard that it's hard to get them on floating stick anyway so instead of trying I've just kept him on live foods.
He enjoys chasing river shrimp and crickets.
I'm definitely going to feed the sticks to some worms and crickets to try help him along.
