African Aros - 2005

[aquafan2001]

Hi:

I just bought some African Aros from Anthony last Wednesday. All 10 were the healthiest specimens that I have seen in a long time. All are fat and eating blackworms.

All range from 2"-4". I will once again powerfeed these guys to grow them as fast as possible. They are in a 75 Gal tank with a Retic Stingray as a tankmate.

Anyone else who bought from him, please post your stories. I would like to know everything:
Number of Aros
Sizes
Tank Size
Tankmates
Any other comments:

I will be glad to answer any questions you may have. Lets hear it for the African Aros.

I have bad exprience with these aros. They just die suddenly.

Piranha45:
At this size, I would not recommend trying too many kinds of foods. I beleieve that is one of the main reasons people loose their young African Aros. They end up starving them to death. I am sticking with live blackworms.

Neoprodigy:
Nothing like watching a bunch of Arowanas swimming around in your tank.

Koji:
Find a realiable source for African Aros and feed them 2 or 3 times a day with live blackworms. It has worked for me several times.
