If you never kept fish or managed a tank before it won't be a fun experience for you or any fish (big or small) in the pond. We all have to start somewhere.

Bro seriously fish gives the most wild measurements yah.
silver arowana minimum as given by others is 8 x 3 x 2 ft/ 8 x 4 x 2
for the bass, it depends on what species. Kelberi, ocellaris, mono etc require 6 x 2 x 2, although if I’m not wrong
Tony A.
or someone here breeds them in 4 x 2 x 2. Temensis I would agree with the above tank size.related to the thread,the fish I can think of which can fit in the pond:
- florida gar
- any type of arowana
- any species of peacock bass
- freshwater rays
- bichirs (may not look good too view)
- tiger shovel nose/ tigrinus
- datnoids
- amartus payara (fast flowing water required)
- vittatus African tiger fish (fast flow water required)
above is the general predatory fish which won’t outgrow 700g, just don’t overstock! ??

I disagree that Seriously Fish gives wild measurements.
-Silver arowana: For a fish that gets 1-1.22m long, a 91cm wide tank is not going to provide enough turning space, and 2.44m of length is quite minimal for exercising/swimming length.
-Peacock bass: C. ocellaris reaches 75cm according to Seriously Fish, for example. A 1.83m x 61cm x 61cm tank, like with the arowana, is very tight.
That same issue applies to the recommended tank sizes for all the other species of peacock bass, except perhaps C. kelberi.
They're not trying to give wild measurements, they're trying to educate potential keepers on optimal tank sizes. And I don't know about you, but I feel it should (at least to a degree) be common sense that a fish which gets as wide as or wider than a tank, for example, is too big for the tank, since its size makes for very uncomfortable turning.
Ultimately, though, I digress. This discussion might be best had in another thread.

Tell you what, the day you find me a 1.22m silver arowana according to your seriouslyfish I’ll bow down to you and jump off a building thx
I have seen a lot of silver arowanas bigger then or around 1.2meter tbh
Sure, sure you have. The video you posted, who hasn’t seen it before? Has like over 600k views on YouTube duh ?. Most probably wild caught.
Ur telling you see 1.22m silver aros and bigger commonly?
The person who posted it, posts everything “YouTube record”. Cb silvers grow 28-36” at most? 1.22m and larger, seriously? Who r u kidding
If you think the owner of this thread can’t own a silver arowana in a 700g pond and all silver arowanas must be kept in a huge ass public aquarium cause they grow larger than 1.22m i might as well live in a cardboard box
