So it may be possible can you remember the rough size of the channa? I was told they get more territorial as they grow but in a bare tank I'm hoping I could keep some tough fish with 1

Ok thanks, what size is yours? And I am thinking the channa if its possible, banjar asian arowana, possibly an RTC but haven't decided 100% and a GATF in a 500g to start with and then a 2000g when I feel they need it.

@koi9- just watched that vidio on you tube and its definitely an adult and both the micro and the aro look healthy and no fin damage so obviously not much aggression, I hope I can get 1, they are stunning
