Asian Aro Com - Mar 2006 Update

[dimfer]

Wow, where in Canada are you from?
What size tank are they residing in?
What farm are the aros from?

Edmonton, Alberta
They're currently in a 130 gal, will build bigger tank soon.
They're all from Panda Aquatics, Singapore

Nice i hope you have a big swiming pool out the back to put them all in soon.

thanks, I'll build a big tank in the basement, too cold here to put them outside

Your aros are getting big. And they're showing their color now.

they eat like pigs colors are slowly developing. too bad tank location and tank lighting are not ideal for picture taking to show true colors.

nice comm... rtg's? did you buy them separately or in one lot. looks like a successful peaceful comm. congrats!

thanks!
I got 6 golden crossback, 3 chilli red and a panda gold in the com, bought as a lot. they're together since late oct 05.

Nice fishes!!
I hope i can get one in the raffle!!

Nice, though they look bigger than 8" - 9.5". If so, they are thick!

yeah, some are just thick, they eat just about anything you throw into the tank

 

[dimfer]

wow. im so envious right now.

I would love to see what feeding time is like at your place? lol.

feeding arowana com is a thrill, but would sometimes make me cringe, my biggest fear during feeding time is broken barbel, so far, no major mishap

awesome community of reds you have there. In about 3 years time you might be earning from their babies! good luck! keep us updated.

thanks. I hope to be lucky enough to breed them. I got 2 natural pairs already, always swimming together and resting together, I hope it is not brokeback mountain

I am hoping to get this comm help me support my audio setup expenses
