U mean to tell me not everything is real on the internet
and all this time I thought The Onion was real news
A lot of people tend to keep quiet about their tank sizes or make up a tank size to avoid stepping on the wrong toes and getting blasted from all sides with flaming arrows. I got burned up pretty bad for trying to put a black arowana with a Jardini. Everyone spoke the truth but they said it in such a way that made me angry at first. It was more like a roast than it was help. Now I'll never know if it would have worked but I'm too scared to try again. What Knightmare has been saying is true, of all the members here how many can actually vouch for a 200+ gallon tank? Not many. I personally have 4 fish tanks, 10, 29, 55, 180. If you add them all together HEY I have a monster tank 
. But sadly the truth is I don't have a monster 240(yet) and I probably won't for a while(college doesn't pay itself). I do love my arowana very much and if ever I should be unfit to care for them, as much as it would hurt I'd probably sell them. I just don't think you should judge someone's capability to care for fish immediately after hearing that his or her tank is a good 50 gallons or more smaller than the expected.

Wow, okay I'm going to go to the facts of this thread....
Yes Post has nothing to do with knowledge but NOR does your Education, Career Choice, or Living situation(therefore, I think going after someone on a personal basis after they have bested you is petty and more childish)....I have to say that I DO NOT have any experience with keeping Silver Aro. BUT Common Sense (which some people dont have) says a potentially 3ft fish cannot fit in a 6ftx2ft space. I really am going to stay out of this thread(I might become a hypocrit) because I think that the ignorant people that put poor experiance before common sense need to

Yeah you may need to look at that thread again. You had a half page of good, polite knowledgeable advice. Your so call burning came, as it should've, after this reply
5 people advising against and you had already done it. You seem to be the type as I was speaking of before. You'll just keep asking the same question over and over until someone give you the answer you need to justify your fishkeeping.
holy crap. i drove home from my univeristy (20 min drive home) and this thread gained 4 plus pages!!!?!?!?! 
but i will say this thread really kept me busy during my 4 hour psychology class. haha
