A large arowana can easily puncture the plastic bag. To help with the transfer, try to lower the temperture SLOWLY by adding ice cube in the water. The will help to make the fish less active. However, it has to be done very careful.

Because of its aggressive nature, this voracious but easily tamed fish should be raised in isolation.


if aros are mixed with other fish from young their is no problem keeping them with tank mates that are to small to eat

i also dont agree with keeping the water level in a tank low (3/4 full) one you have less water in you tank the more water the better thats why big tanks are far more easy to take care of than a big tank

if the water level is low it give the aro more space to propel its self out of the water causing more damage once it hit the top tank glass cover of you keep the water level high the aro doesnt get as much time to use the full power from its tail

agreed. personally, that approach doesnt solve the problem.. which is aro proofing the tank. Any size tank except for custom ones , can be easily cleared by a good sized aro. The real problem should be finding a way of securing the lid( and sealing the cracks ) so that a jump wont dislodge or break the covers.
