Anatomical Skull OK for fish tank decoration??

[BTB0923]

I recently acquired a new 55 gallon tank for my arowana as he has outgrown his current one and I want to use a skull as decoration. It's a plastic anatomical model and I was wondering if anyone knows if it would be OK for my tank...or if not, why??

If it's all plastic and not painted then it will be fine.

it should be fine, but just a heads up the 55gal wont last long for your aro

yeah, I know it...I am going to upgrade when I move out of my apartment. Right now I'm on third floor and I don't feel safe going any heavier than a 55 gallon. Thanks for the info anyways.

Should be ok

most plastic, unless it's cheap crap or painted is generally fine

I'm not really sure.....since I plan on moving in less than a year anyways I'm not quite ready to get a tank as big as that, whether the floor will hold it or not. I plan on eventually getting a 220 gallon, or maybe bigger depending on the space I will have and the amount of money I will be willing to spend.
