Well with all the football fever going around, the arowana also wanted to show their header prowess

And here's a feeding video

After almost an year I have got clear water, and I intend to keep it that way now.

Clear water means underwater videos

I am loving the albinos in the pond, too bad their immune systems aren't that great, out of 12 only 2 survived, although 2 I lost to the aggression from my Adonis

Lovely stuff, Jibran. Do you find it harder and harder to deliver feed to arowana as the mahseer are growing? They are impossible hogs. :)

They do eat a lot, but I have only 5 of them and I feed a bit more than a pound of fillet, and the arowana are a lot more aggressive too.

Although I am sure with time as the tors grow bigger they might be more trouble than the arowana can handle

Looking good! Would you say you enjoy the Aros more or less than your old stock?
It's a lot more fish now than before,.

I do visit the old cats and the gars in their much larger pond, so I don't miss them much.

Keeping silver arowana the right way was a very old dream of mine and I am doing that now.

You can definitely say I am totally undecided on the query though

Yesterday evening I noticed that one of my silver arowana was dead and at the bottom of the pond, I removed it and checked for any bruises or any injuries, but there were none.

Will share the video
