Arowana tank( Is the tank big enough)

Im worried about feeding the fire eel...Do you think it will be easy to get food to him because from what i know they will only eat live food

They should eat night crawlers, tilapia, and shrimp.

Ya I agree with the kid just stick to what he said and some earthworms and black worms should be good.

The Aro will eat the barbs. Unless you train the eel to hand feed it will have a tough time. You really need a wider tank for the Aro, but it will be ok.

What if you bought several different schooling species that stayed tiny?

It will slowly eat them all.

If the aro wants to eat them, he will no matter how fast they are in an aquarium. He will cruise down at night and pick them off one by one. Some aros might eat them, some may leave them alone. You will just have to do some trial n error to find out. Some 2ft aros won't touch a tiny 2inch fish, u just never know for sure. Keep him well fed on other things other than live feeder fish and your chances may improve imo

My Leichtardi won't eat anything smaller than my hand.
