i was just wondering because i want one . and i do not want to get bite
and second question can it be kept with mi austrlia arowana? let me know
 
Mine came after me once :) But then realised It was my hand not my hand dropping food :)
 
you may want to reconsider that type of fish for a 20 gallon. all species of gar and arowana will outgrow a 20 very quickly.

you already have an arowana in a 20 gallon?
 
whenever i am cleaning my tank they come up to my hand
i always pull out, but they are so slow you can see them coming as long as you pay attention i think you would be find. When mine were real small they were in a 20 but they outgrew it real fast. i have a 50 now and they are soon going to be outgrowing that.
 
well if you put your hand in at feeding time, your asking for trouble. Hell your arowana will bite you, a lot of fish will. 20g is too small, and would be too small for any arowana so you will need to upgrade. Most gars get pretty big though.
