I leave the secret to the silver owners who argue with me over it....And have yet to raise one with out it......

I have raised two silvers now without D/E....one pictured above and many remember my 30+ inch aro that also had no drop eye...But no one takes my advice when given.....

But I certinly dont care either way----Hance the reason why I have stopped argueing with everyone---Simply not worth the time to me....

Take good care and provide it a nice home with huge water changes,excellent filtration,and nice varied diet and I'm sure one can see some nice results..

I totally understand. There are peeps on this site that just want to argue, and are know it alls. Your Silver is beautiful. No question about your fishkeeping skills. I just want mine to turn out nice too. :D

Thanks-
I dont have the luxury of obtaining awesome specimens like th most of everyone-I just dont have the selection-And shipping is outrageous-But I do what I can for the specimens I do obtain.....Most of my stock has been nothing more than LFS pickup's and petco.....

Freeze dried krill,raw shrimp,cod,pellets...

This aro is only skiddish at feeding times...The tank gets fed in one corner of the tank-When the all approach...The aro gets a bit cautious....But other than that-It takes to hand feeding/petting...I have no problems with macro shots,etc,etc.....

wow. love the color on the gill plates. that aro is gorgeous!! what is drop eye, and what causes it?
drop eye is a fat buildup behind an arowana's eye the cuases it to be permenently looking down, nobody really knows the cause
