Hi guys...
I have a RTTG 12inches, silver arowana 10inches, a trimac 4inches, and one strange fish (got picture in my other fish) 2 inches, and an oscar 4inches in one aquarium (3X2X2)...
The problem is, one or more of these fish seems to be harassing my silver aro... i couldnt figure out who, but i think its the oscar... my silvers fins are torn and her scale is gone in a couple of places... i can see that 6 scales are missing... i spied on them (hiding behind door) but they seem to be living happily together... no fights or whatsoever... Except the trimac chasing the strange fish now and then...
So basically, who is among these fishes that is the culprit attacking my silver aro?... Huhuhu...
 
Trimacs can be pretty aggressive. That would be my first suspect. I had a juvie oscar that was extremely mean so it could be him like you stated. Sounds like your going to have to watch them for a while
 
its 3X2X2 feet... the trimacs huh?... i moved the oscar to another tank thinking that he is the culprit... sigh~~.... have to hide behind door again spying on them i guess... the oscar and trimac are about the same size, but oscar seems to be more aggressive and bossy towards the other fishes... the only fish that he is afraid of is the 1foot RTTG... gonna by a new aquarium for the silver aro i guess... planning on buying a 6X2X3 (LengthXWidthXHeight) tank... met a pet shop owner earlier today wanna sell his tank... going to see it tomorrow... he is selling it pretty cheap full set with cabinets and all...
 
Is it possible they are fighting because there isnt enough room for all of them? With so little room, the area is on territory and they all want it to themselves. I would remove all the fish except the Oscar. Im dont know much about aro's, but I thought they needed 200 gal+. Good luck with your fish. Have any pictures?
