Try giving it the bloodworms that you have. I have a silver arowana that's about the same size as yours, and it loves bloodworms.

By the way, you might have better luck finding help in the Arowana Sub-Forum.
yeah i tried the blood worms today but he didn't seem to care for them. maybe when he matures. its like getting a little kid to eat broccoli. lol. no, but im sure he'll eat something.
 
at most LPS and LFS you can get crickets in 4 sizes.. small crickets are great for small arowana, even the littlest ones. his mouth is bigger than it looks. and bugs are their staple diet in the wild.
 
Nice, i would have gotten an arro if the LFS here were like the ones in usa... gives credit.

I would have loved to get an aro for my 55gal for like a year... but I don't think it can stay in a 55 for a year
 
From what I have heard they grow very fast. Not sure if you will be able to keep him in your 75g for long.
 
6 monthes or less if it's taken care of well. at least thats how long it took for mine too.

i should make an attempt to go pick some up today or tomorrow
 
my old silver hit 22" at 9 months old, so you likely wont have a lot of time. a word of caution though, selling big fish can be very difficult and you'll likely have to take a loss to rehome it.
