1st arowana

Then I would say no arowana for you. If a 40gal is the biggest you can do, then I would recommend you don't get one.

^ agree

any type of arowana needs at least a 150 gallon with special dimensions to be happy. start researching other fishes that look like arowana as alternatives.


(lets hope he still doesn't get one.)

i want a species tank. and the biggest tank i can get is a 40 gal

See post #3

40 is definitely a no-no. Look into the African Butterflyfish. It shares some characteristics the arowana does, but only reaches about 5" or so.

i know a 40 gal is too small I didn't find out until 3 days ago. could a black aro and a silver live in the same tank?
