i want an arowana

[mdo135]

I have had freshwater fish for years now, and so i know a bit about the freshwater tank. I have always loved arowanas and wave wanted one sence i was little. I have recantly started to build my own tanks and would like to make one for an arowana. If someone could give me some advise that would be greatly appreciated!

- What size tank?
- Feeding?
- Tankmates?
- How to get one at a deciant price?
- Filtration recomendations?
- Anything will help
-Thank You!-

- What size tank?
i built my pond for an aro and i went with 8'x4'x2'. you could probaby go with 3' instead of 4'.
- Feeding?
i feed my 2" silver hikari FD brine shrimp
- How to get one at a deciant price?
try finding one someone is giving away. or get a baby one. i got mine for 15$

Check out the sticky in the arowana forum. Delgado (another member here) wrote it and it has pretty much all you need to know for a silver.

hey arlo, thanks 4 the offer! I am seriously considering it. I won't be ready for it for a while though, I don't know if you'll still have it by the time I get my tank set up. I'll get back to you about it!
