thats bada$$. hows aggression>

They are not too aggressive toward each other besides mutual chaging when the tank is dark (don't know why) and the smaller arowana challenging the bigger one from time to time.

I just put my Jardini in this tank to see if he would get along. :naughty:
 
Very very nice fish and a wonderfull tank there..... :D you are lucky to have them but this is just my opinion next time make a video with the house dark and lose the sound affect's other wise this is and addicting video.. :D

Those dorados are cool. I wouldn't mind having some. They're pretty active aren't they? Where did you get yours?

Dorados are definitely one of the coolest characins available in this hobby. I got sold into it after seeing them at Shedd (not the one in the main display tank). I got them from another hobbyist on this forum.

They are indeed very active! They maneuver themselves very precisely and yet are very fast. However, they can also get very skittish and will make you feel schizophrenic when they are in that mode.

I love how they feed. They hit water like cichlas but with a lot more motion.
