I picked myself up a 3" black arowana at the weekend. It is taking bloodworm but is there anything you would recommend trying to feed it at tis size to start to get some growth
 
Freeze dried blood worms are best for now 4-5x daily. Start mixing in broken pellets with the bloodworms, once 4-4.5" you can covert to pellets. Once eating pellets you can expand the menu to a wide variety of foods. Check out the sticky for more food info. Can you post a picture of your black aro?
 
Not the best picture i the world cos it won't stay still ..... but here it is

when my arow was 4inch he started taking down tilapia,shrimp an silversides an from then he was growing like crazy...the more protein the better in my opinion...beautifull arow by the way..good luck
