Jardini + Silver Experiment!

[Sonny503]

Keep it in there for all of us to learn, ... Jokes aside beef him up a little bit, give him a fighting chance, $10 is better than a dead fish. Nice picture btw.

thats a nice silver, Id like to see some more pics with your other aros and the jar too, maybe a full tank?

Depends on the personality of your silvers. Mine are super friendly @ 20", I had 3 5" peacock bass in with them for 3 weeks and nothing happened. I finally got my 240 set up and moved the aros into there.

i think you should just keep a close eye on them, or if you are really worried just put a divider in the tank... some plant cover at the surface may even help... but i have 2 large silver aro's and i actually had danio's and silver dollars in with them for a while, untill i introduced my mono's to the tank... now only the sd's are left.... but point being, danios are about the size of comets and they survived peacefully in the tank for months with my aros

That arowana looks like it could swallow the jardini in 1 gulp!

i dunno, the jar might shoot laser beam from it eyes

alright... new update... :[ a bad one too...

so my arowanas, i realized, are extremely gentle.
my peacock bass on the other hand, are mean fkers...

Thank god i woke up early this morning to look into the tank.... otherwise i dont think he would have made it... but here is the jardini... beaten half to death!

He swims perfectly fine, but i almost cried when i saw how f'ed up got... i really hope he can make it through it... what do you guys think?

(i put him in a 40 gallon by himself afterwards)

Thats a shame, beautiful looking fish as well. IMO I say treat with some aquarium salt to stop any infection and let time heal him.

 

[Spiritofthesoul]

fatten him up first before you decided on Round II, ok?

 

[ermgravy]

oh now there is a surprise.....

bummer. I personally would dose the tank with melafix and pimafix for the recommended week and then salt up the tank. reason being is because the aro has exposed flesh. GOOD LUCK!
