HBG Arowana vs. Black Arawana

[xxkasper]

Hi

My tank is a 330 gallon with
four cichla monoculus
ten silver dollar
two p. motoro stingrays and
one sorubim lima

So the question is if I can have a HBG Arowana with them or if it's too aggressive? My alternative is a Black Arawana but it's not a secret that I like HBG most.
I already know that the Black Arawana is from SA like the other fishes but my question is how important that is? I'm surely not interested in a HBG Arowana if it's going to eat or kill the others.

Can I go for a HBG or should I take the "safe on" and go for a Black?

Hi xxkasper, and welcome.

I would go for the black.
why because i dont like the shape of Asian arowana, but i must admit that they got some amazing colors!!!

Thanks Ras
There's the difference - I really like the shape of 'em! But again the most important thing is not my opinion only but also what's the best for the other fishes.

I think HBGS are better

DylanThearowanakid: Thanks. But how come is HBG better?

Well it's just my oppinion but it depends on what type of tank u want an aggresive or semi aggresive o and btw I have 2 hbgs at home and the picked on my aro so i had to put a divider in the tank which made it look kinda small and ugly but if u have a big tank they prob won't bother it.i think they picked on my aro because I had them in a 300 gallon and the hbgs are bigger o and I'm talking about a black arowana tht got picked on

HBG wont grow as big as the black

 

[xxkasper]

Thanks again

I'm still not quite sure what to do.

linh903: I know. But will the HBG leave my silver dollar and stingrays alone or is it too aggressive??
