He’s stressed. Two arowana alone wont work, you either need to keep one single aro or a group of them to diffuse aggression.
Two of anything is risky when dealing with possible aggression.
People need to get over the quaint notion of using the word "fine" to describe a new fish introduction just because it doesn't produce any aggression within the first five seconds.

This.
It's a matter of dispersing social quarrels between individuals, which 2 doesn't do sufficiently because the social quarrel reaches the end of the line whenever one fish engages in it.
Generally the recommended minimum to disperse the quarrel is 3-12 depending on species, with the minimum being higher the more aggressive the fish is.
