Silver aros grow very quickly about 2.5-4 cm per month on average. You are eventually going to need a tank of at least 1200 liters with proper dimensions to house the silver when grown.

If you have time and space for a bigger tank, then upgrade as soon as you can.

What are the diameters of you 250L tank?

WELL IT IS 1,5 METERS long and 55 cm wide !

The tank is only 30cm tall? That is an odd size.

Bigger tank is needed a LOT sooner than later.

If my conversions are correct we're talking 8" silver aro and a tani with a 5'x22" footprint. You should be good for a bit (provided there aren't significant amounts of fish in there besides the aro). Maybe a year at the absolute most, when the aro hits 18" or so...but I would start looking/planning for a new tank now, something with roughly a 2.5m x 1m footprint.
