well i bought my arrow about 2 to 3 months ago and i think hes grown about 5-6 inches bigger and has gotten thicker in this little bit of time and some1 told me that if i feed him pinkies he will grow even faster
i might try a tester fish first (like a rosie) ive had mine for about a month and never fed him feeders so maybe tomorrow ill try a rosie and see
I think you'll find that fish eating for a aro is like riding a bike. It is not something they will ever forget. Aros grow very fast, while fronts grow very slow. Your aro will definitly make an expensive snack out of anything that is even close to the size of his mouth.
Arow will grow much faster and when that front can fit in his mouth, its probably going to be an expensive meal. They grow 12+ inches but slowly I ve had mine for 2 years and its only 6-7inches from 1 inch when I first got him. The arow will outgrow a front easily in a month or two. As for the front and the 10gal I wouldnt suggest it either although it may be small that tank could easily stunt it or make it grow much slower. Just from personaly experience they seem to grow by how much space they have the more space I gave mine the more he grew, the other one had less space and is growing much slower. ANyways good luck!
i think the rosies color will be the attractant try a darker colored african one of the cheap ones for like $4
