Flowerhorn and Silver Arowana

[CichlidL]

Hello everyone
I am having a silver arowana about 13 to 14'' in a 60''x18''x18'' tank i am planning to add a flowerhorn about 4 to 5inchs as a tankmate with my aro..are they compatible tankmates ? Thanks in advance

Doesn't sound like a good idea in that size of a tank. The flowerhorn will be VERY territorial towards the arowana.

First, the tank is way too small for the Arowana. Second, the chances of a FH and a Silver Aro that small getting along is slim.

My silver arowana is 20" + & I've had smaller flowerhorns than that with it in 150 gal. FH will need places to retreat to from getting eatened. That will make your tank even smaller. My suggestion is to find bigger FH...leading to need for bigger tank. Good luck.

Definitely a no no.
