does anyone know were to get a cheap silver or jardini online and i was also wondering if it was ok to put one in my 30 for like a month then in my 55 for like a month or 2 and then into my 125 for life lol lots of moves but thats what i will hav to do
 
125gal for life is not a good idea. But, snookn21 on this sight has killer deals.
 
125 gal for life is not good for any Arowana. I have seen Arowana that grow up deformed because the tank was too small. Its my opinion that you should have at least a 3 foot wide tank by at least 6 feet long. I think 360 gal and bigger is best.
 
ok if i could afford that then i would but i cant so ill prolly go with the 125 for now then later buy a 200 or 300
 
Even if you start with a baby aro(3") the silver will grow fast. Within about 18 to 24 months you will need a tank to support at least a 24" fish. Eventually the aro will get over 30" if properly cared for, so recommended minimum for an aro that big would be a tank 8 foot long and 30 to 36" wide.
 
for life is 220+ gallon

Big nono, upgrade now and save yourself and your fish the hassle later. If you can't provide a suitable home, then dont keep it period.
