Ideal temp for aro?

[Diamond01ar]

I've got a ailver aro with my pbass and was wondering what the aro's ideal water temp is?

Every person will have a different answer to this question.
I find 27-28 degrees celsius (80-82.4 fahrenheit) to be around the most comfortable for the fish. When the temps rise into the 30 degree c + (86+) they seem to eat less.
I also like this temp because it allows for + or - 3 degrees safe zone that can happen with water changes and still keep the arowana in it's safe temp zone.

Small silvers or blacks under 8" I go with 82-84*. Once they are larger 78-80*. I would never go below 76* or above 85* for any length of time.

76F-86F is fine but i suggest 80F-84F
