My jardini keeps hurting the tail fin

[Shivah]

Hi my jardini is very sensitive sometimes especially when I am around - is that normal?
We bought him home in January when he was almost a year.
Can someone have a look at him and let me know if he is doing well? He eats 5 fishes most of the day and sometimes

also is there a way to upload a video for better clarity?

He might be skittish especially in a smaller tank, I would suggest upgrading the tank size as Arowanas are active fish. I think the only way to upload videos is through YouTube.

Thank you. Should do as soon as this Covid lockdown is over. Getting delayed though.

Looks alright. I’d agree with Fishnerd360 .

If you have had him since January and at the size that is normal, I think. That is a nice looking Jardini and you will need a bigger tank.

That tank is way to small for that fish, no wonder your having problems. I would invest in a tank about 4 times bigger than the one it's in or rehome the fish. Its never going to be happy and healthy in there.

We are getting the tank upgraded to 7X6 in sometime afteWe got the tank for flowerhorn but the fellow didn’t have one and sold This guy to us. Thanks though.

Agree with this, its no wonder the tail is getting hurt, the tank should be "minimum" 6-8 ft long
