Mines 9" roughly and eats everything: smelt, shrimp, but nightcrawlers are his favorite. Feed them live blackworms, as many times a day as possible, they're the best IMO because they'll live in the sponge filter and not rot. It'll give the young'ns something to graze on. And most importantly keep them separated, they don't do well together.

Good info, Thanks!
 
I followed Oddball's tips on raising baby afrowana and it worked.. Got my baby afro 3 months ago at 3-4 inch now its 14 inch... Mr. Oddball please chime in...
 
Frozen bloodworms are an option also but you have to be more careful since feeding them 3+ times per day is necessary.

Damn thats a good growth rate! Sounds like you know what your doing? Please share your secrets: Tank size, temps, bare bottom tank or gravel? and feeding...........
 
My African Arowana is 16" now. When it was a youngster I would crush Hikari pellets into a fine dust and release these billows of particle clouds into the water column around four to five times a day.

He now enjoys whole pellets and anything big and meaty.
