how much and how often shud i be feeding these as im getting diffrent advice?also what are the best foods for these guys?
 
i know were you got them from a guy was selling them and aquarist classified :D

just keep a close eye on them as they have been kept in the same tank for some time but now you have moved them to a new tank they will need to sort out new Territory's

the fights may get bad but should sort them selfs out after some time

what i would say is keep the lights dim

Asian aros look great with lots of light but it seams to make them fight more

i found with my 9 Asian aros the only way to stop them fighting was only to use a blue moon light

by the look of some of the tails some of them were already fighting before they were moved

if the fights get to bad you may need to take the beat up aro out and let it recover then put it back in later
