Please keep in mind that your aro will eventually need a bigger tank. At only 120 gallons it will outgrow it very fast. At 7 inches it will easily grow over a foot in about of a year. Thinking about tank mates right now is a good time though since when it’s bigger it may see others are a threat.

I had a few Polypterus And Clown loaches with mine. He never messed with them. They where in a 200. Arowana was about 18”.

I will, im planning making 1000g tanks once I'm moving out in 1 or 2 years. Thx for the reminding

I'm also planning building a pond for 3 or 4 pairs of super red arowana..

Depends on the tank size. Generally speaking, any fish that is peaceful/semi-aggressive and too big to fit in the arowanas mouth that is not a surface-dweller (unless it's a really large tank as arowanas hang out at the surface and in a small tank a surface dweller will fight with the arowana)
