I have a arowana that I just upgraded to a 120g. He was in a 55g but he is still pretty much a juvenile. But now I'm left with an empty 55g and was wondering if I could get some clown loaches to grow out and put in with the arowana?
 
Clown loaches grow slow so you will be waiting a long time. Personally I would not chance it, but if you have the patience to wait until you know for sure the CL's are to big to fit in Aro's mouth.

+1 might be waiting years.
 
I had a clown loach living with my arowana for a few years since i had the clown loach before i got the arowana. They were fine together even though the amriwana could have easily eaten the cloan loach at any time. Then the clown loach started being a pain and started latching onto the arowana, harassing him all the time. couple days later the arowana had a big bulge in his stomach and my clown loach had disappeared.
He'd still be around if he behaved himself
