i can make it 10 meter long but that doesnt make me able to have 6, does it??

do you have to have 6? why not cut it back a little?
 
Look at it this way;

Say this is the length of your 8m pond

--------
This would be the length of an adult arapaima (4m)
----

When you compare
--------
----

Not alot of room....

i have to agree. that doesnt leave much if any swimming room.

lol, make sense too.
 
hmm... the way you want the numbers is very interesting? are they supposed to bring luck or sumthing?

anyway, i was thinking of your other question. perhaps a RTC, TSN a cross of RTC and TSN.... and umm... a huge Pbass (Temensis) could stand them? or will the Gar (i'm thingking alligator) too agressive? ohh a Pacu will also be good:)

how big can gator gar get. i read an article on gatoe gar, can it really reach up to 10 ft.

just about ryt...10 foot could be its limitations to this enormous creature...
 
in captivity a gator gar should max out between 5-7 feet...and even this size should take a while for them to reach. there may be some exceptions, but you wont raise one to the 10' mark in captivity.

i think it would be pretty awesome to get a few of these for your pond!
