Since the last update, the Inscriptus having settled in the tank, started to terrorize the blue base xb and I moved the Inscriptus to another 220 gallon tank. Peace was short-lived though as the blue base started to beat on the super red.

So moved the xb to the pond in a very unplanned way.

On the eighth day I noticed that the bbxb was pretty badly beaten up and was hiding in a corner in the pond.

So he is back in the tank with the others and behaving well, but I will be moving him to the pond again, but will be trying a much different approach.

Anyways heres a video of the beaten up xb.

Well this weekend I reduced the water in the pond, jumped into the pond, moved around the driftwood removed some rocks.

And released the 2 remaining albino silver arowana and the bbxb.

Today morning I went and fed the arowanas some super worms, and I was glad to see em all eating and swimming well.

Sorry for not taking enough pics or videos, but did take one before release IMG_20210411_154725.jpg

Well I am trying to house the two young reds together, here's a trial that is still in place since this Sunday.


A very big task that I had a hard time to find courage to do, was taken up this Sunday and completed. Atlast I have cleaned the pond filter and the water is a lot more clearer. 5hrs of back breaking work was well worth it.
