it still has red colour lining around the scales.
Is not dark, like any other, but light on the silver side. Not sure what 'colourful' means to you. Some times, your input on aros is really bias'ed.

I'm surprised no one has attacked the OP about tank size.

Not sure how I'm "bias'ed" as you put it? All I stated is your silver looks like any other average silver at that size. Maybe your silver is the only one you've ever seen?

Why would would you attack the OP?:duh: Especially for keeping a 7-8" silver aro in a 180g tank.

I disagree on the feeders idea. Feeders do more harm than good unless you are breeding them yourself (and if you were breeding them yourself, you'd probably be using them more than once per month_.

me? I'm FOR 180G for a single aro. Lol that's what I have.
I've only been in this hobby for about a year now; but witnessed commercial and domestic tanks in 4 Different countries, within my time in the hobby.

What is 'colourful?,' to you? Is the OP's aro 'colourful?'

Yeah sure, you can really see the coloration in the pics he posted :duh: Seems the OP understands that it will take more then a 180g to house his arowana once it is over 24". You on the other hand?
 
I recommend Blue LEDs for night lights
 
well mine is colorful, like discus colorful, but i mean you can clearly see some red in it. But i understand now that most of them have this when they are young. But when it comes to tank size, im sure the arowana can go quite a while in my 180, but i am looking to set up a true monster tank in a years time or so. Im looking for somewhere around the 300 mark and im sure thats large enough for an arowana.
Sorry to inadvertently start this debate.

Tbh, your aro does look pretty pale from the pics you've posted... mine had different shades of green, turquoise, blue, and red at that size, and it still has retained some of its color (although I don't think it's nearly as bright as it used to be)...

I'll stay out of the tank size debate though... nothing good ever comes out of it...
