Arowana Compatible??

[sheajared]

Can I keep an armatus with a silver arowana and freshwater lion fish? I heard armatus tend to not like silver fish, and I dont know much about lion fish.


Thanks ahead of time.

You might know it as a toadfish. It sits at the bottom and pretends to be a rock but then if its food comes by it makes a quick strike. Also very ugly.

lion fish are lazy and wont disturb the arowana. not the arowana expert but if the lion fish picks on him he will jump out of the tank.

Thanks, first article taught be a lot. The thread didn't as much, haha they drifted off topic a bit...

But thanks, I wonder if freshwater lionfish can permanently live in freshwater...?

An why do I feel like every fish with "freshwater" in its name is brackish or saltwater....

And what about the armatus with both?
