Bare Minimum Height for a Jardini

[arlo]

trying to get my hands on a bigger tank for a jardni. i read somewhere that they must be at least 2 feet wide and 4 feet long? i think length mite be more, please correct me if im wrong. i also heard that jardini aro's dont really need a very tall so i was thinking maybe 20" in height? could i get to be even more shallow?

ok i just entered the dimensions. it says a 6 foot long tank, thats 2 feet high and 2 feet wide is 180 gallons. i heard u need at least 200 for a jardini but dam couldnt this work too??

whats the bare minimum height for a single jardini arowana tank?

I think the minimum would be 16" water.

 

[arlo]

cool. i think im going to go for a 20 " high tank then. for sure its going to be 2 feet wide cus from what i read thats like the bare minimum for width and 6 feet in length. i dont think a jardini would outgrow that, would it?

 

[Loubard]

I personally think it's better to have a 2.5 ft wide tank.

 

[arlo]

ure rite, bigger is always better. but im gonna stick with 2 feet wide tank.

 

[arlo]

has anyone had experience building a tank. whats easiest?

Jardini can grow darn huge. A 2 footer wide may even look pretty cramp to it when it's much bigger infact.

Agreed.

2.5 ft width would be ideal.
