Hi,
Here are some more pictures, I tried to add salt to my tank to increase concentration, but noticed my arowana seems stressed and breathing harder, So i made a 20% water change . I also increased the thermometer setting to 30 Deg.
Any advise?
thanks.

looks like it to me... Is their breathing hard & fast? Do they have a gold sheen in certain light?
I think that's just the fish color...
But judging from the pics they don't look too stressed, the fish is in a different position for 2 of the pictures.
But I guess that's no way to tell.. Can we see a bigger tank shot?

you can barely tell it's the same fish...
Well, if they aren't already, quarantine them and treat with prazipro. Could possibly have some sort of internal parasite. Doubtful, but something is definitely up with the fish.

Yes. Then take shot in the dark and treat with a copper medicine, and Jungles Parasite Clear food.batang_mcdo;3195437; said:really need help with this.

I've never experienced any recycling issues after using copper medicine.
Try coppersafe or cupramine. I've used cupramine without any cycling issues.
