Hey, my 20cm arowana showing some strange behavior like it likes to swim and stay under filter box where the water is fall. My aro also refuse to eat since a week ago (I always give crickets to my aro). Last time I saw it ate 1 fish 3 days ago. This morning I gave a cricket but my aro only bite the cricket and after that it let it go. I keep my aro with 3 bichirs and 4 datnoides. Is it got stressed out because of the datnoides? Sometimes I saw my datnoides chasing my aro (datnoides size aroud 10-12cm). Now I put my aro in quarantine tank and hope someone can help me to stop this because I want my aro eat and swim like other normal arowana :( thanks before guys
 
Stress sounds like a likely cause. You may have to choose between the aro and the dats unless it's a very large tank.
 
looks like your banjar lost the battle with dats...
you're doing right to separate them , let your banjar to buff up n get bigger for momentarily then go on to the battle again
a battle was lost but not a war :D
