Arowana tank recomendations.

[Edsnm]

Hi everyone im new in this forum and im from Costa Rica .

Here's the deal. I've a young 13'' silver arowana. Now she is happy in a 110 gallon tank. 1.30m x .50 x . 60 (60 is tall).

Im setting up a new tank 2.20m x .60 x .35 where .35 is the tall.
I know both of the tanks will be some day a little house for mi aro but in the meanwhile i like to keep her inside of the house in a glass fish tank.

Im thinking maybe the space to swim wold be a lot more in the 2'20m tank, but you think that the just 35cm tall wold be a problem for my aro?

What are yoyr recomendations?

Thanks in advance !

Height of the tank isn't that critical, although 35cm seems low for a tank that long, and if the aro is used to a deeper tank, it my be spooked by the change to a shallower tank. Your aro should be ok for a while, but ideally eventually you would want something along the lines of 90cm deep, front to back.

Thanks for your answer. So you think that the second tank will be a better option?

your aro will grow at least 1" per month, do you need to move it to a larger tank soon
