How big is your aro? What kind of aro? What size are the other fish? What size is the tank?
 
Sorry forgot to include that aro is about 7 or 8 inches maybe smaller biggest tin foil barb is 4 inches and tank is a 150 growout the aro is fine now swimming at the top but he just isn't eating

May take a while for the aro to get used to it's new tank mates. They are active and sounds like they are stressing the arowana. The fact that you have seen some improvement is good. Just give it some time.

How about that jag, how big is it? This is a fish that could be potentially dangerous for your small aro.

The jag is a lot smaller I'm worried tho because I got rid of a hag a month ago because he got big and was being an ass but he is small and timid the aro is the biggest in the tank pretty much more improvement today chewed up some pellets but then let them go
