feed em Fd krills,pellets,market prawn,worms and i recommend a 8x3x2 tank as the min size tank for life and as said 100 gallon last few months and silvers grow to 3-4 ft and keep the tops sealed securely and they grow 1"-1.5" per month
 
k thnx for info all i have is a 100 so any other ideas of good fish i can keep in a 100.
 
bichirs
 
You want to get AN arowana! AN!!!!


If you're looking for predators for the 100g you could get some bichirs (the species would depend on the footprint of the tank), otherwise just go to the shop or get a big book and look for fish you like the look of. Everyone has different tastes in fish and no one can really tell you what you should keep [other than because the obvious restrictions like tank size etc].
 
your really going to want a tank that is 24-30" wide since they are a long fish and need the room to turn around .. they also like to swim so having a longer tank is better as well .. i would say a 6-8 foot long and 30 inch wide tank would be the smallest i would go to keep them for life
 
get some african butterflys they look like an arowana and they are predators
