Educating MFK on the Silver Arowana (REVISED)

[Austin]

I have my 18" silver in my 300 (a six foot 300) with other things. have the chance to get 2 more for fairly cheap, bout 9" a piece...what are some thoughts?

Great piece.... I have a question but am short on time rght now... I have a friend that has an indoor pond 12'x24'xx30". He has in it some turtles, large plecos, large goldfish, a lungfish and an arowana, not sure of the sex but about 7" long. Can he add another arowna, same size but unkown sex, to the system?

it is possible to add another aro in the pond.. it is large enough anyway.. and about sexing the aro, it is impossible to sex it at this size.. mayber after a year and a half when it gets to 20"+ then sexing it would be possible..

i have a 6-7 inch arowana, and this really helped, thanks! was just wondering for any serious food tips, going away for two weeks, and only owned him for two weeks, he seems to have stopped eating today, whether thats due to not being hungry or something else, he ate alot yesterday so i am not worried, so thanks for the post!

just feed him a lot before you go.. it can surely survive two weeks of starvation given he is full before you left.. but when you come back, be sure to feed him because he will really be hungry.. and dont forget to have a water change before you go!
