baby aros

[brianjh]

aros will be less aggressive if put in groups of 5 to 8.. you could separate each aros or buy more aros but please buy a bigger tank.. a minimum of 150 gallons would suffice ONE silver aro..

150 is not big enough for an adult silver, you need to go at least 240

yes i know, well i recently just put them in a 55 gallon, but i separated the tank with a divider because i have goldfishes also. Is it better to get rid of the goldfishes so the aros can have more room?

btw heres some picture of my tank

why even seperate from the goldfish... one day they might be food. Not right to keep the 3 stuck to the one side.

 

[muckieman]

ok well i would add a few more or get rid of gold fish add plants and hope for the best

 

[JBarlak]

how are the arowanas keeping up?

Go with one or the other. Aro's like a much higher temp than goldfish and with the amount of ammonia produced by that many goldfish in that size tank you will need to do massive daily water changes to keep the quality up.

 

[channarox]

get a big enough tank for one.
or if you want ot keep multiple,get a huge tank and at least 6 aros.

 

[headbanger_jib]

as of now remove the divider as the aros are too small to do any major damage to the golds, and add a few more plants to break the line of sight
and at what temp is your tank maintained at
and do remember aros at that size are really really fragile so you have to give them that extra care so that they don't move to the bigger and better tank in the sky
all the best
