Ok, well here is my problem. I previously owned smaller tank for all of my infant fish(less than 5 inches for all of them). In the holding tank there were some bichirs and a clown knife. A night or two before switching my fish over to a large tank i had bought a jardini arowana. It was very small at about 2 inches. Over night a chunk of the jardini's tail had been bitten off in the exact shape of the clown knife's mouth.(the bichirs were 2 inches or less then) So my plan to recover from this epidemic between my fish was to keep the jardini in his seperate holding tank for the fin to re-grow and for him to be at a dominating size over the clown knife. Well that plan was busted, because as of today the clown knife is double the size of the jardini at 13 inches. My plan has failed miserably. Now I am hoping to find a high protein food that is practical(NO FEEDERS). The clown knife has seemed to stop growing at the moment, because i have been recording the inches grown per month...clown knife 5 inches in february. The foods the fish are getting are frozen blood worms and cichlid gold sinking pellets. The clown knife usually doesn't pay attention to bloodworms as my bichirs rise to the surface to chow on the main piece then sink along and suck up the remains along with some pellets. The jardini arowana will eat as much of a bloodworm cube as possible by even going to the gravel to get even more. He will sometimes gobble up some of the few cichlid gold pellets i put in there...only a few because he doesn't eat much when i put in about 7, so i put less to not pollute the water.
Summing it all up i need some high protein food, but remember, NO FEEDERS.
