Big tank,weight on the lids

 

[t.j.]

how big a tank?

 

[dojoloacho]

At least 180 gallons. They get BIG.

180?....for one maybe..and for breeding? try a few more 0s on that..youll need a very large pond to breed them.

how did you sex them?

 

[Dominator]

arowana usually don't breed in tanks, most arowanas are bred in large ponds.

here's a video of them breeding in a tank... well the video is of them mating... no clue if the fry were viable or survived or whatever...

If I'm not wrong, you've to stimulate rain for them to breed.
