my new arowanas

[07candyr6]

Well these are my first arowanas and I'am excited about them. I got two of them just cause of the price on them, they are not big but maybe 3 inches or so. A LFS had 2 inch ones for $50 a piece, but the other LFS had these two slightly bigger ones for $30 a piece so I got them. They are in a 20 gallon tank till they grow out a little then put in a 80 gallon till I get a bigger tank.

And heres a picture of their tank that they are gonna grow out in for now.
just real simple. also they both ate two small crickets each.

They are so tiny ... I've only ever seen one in person and it was going on 5 inches. They don't ship them to KS often. What's the species?

 

[07candyr6]

they are silver arowanas and I believe the species is O. bicirrhosum??

i dont think u should keep aro in a group of 2. they would probaly fight.. u should get 1 or 2 more just to be safe.. just my thought tho

i would like to get another but its the only two that the LFS had.

Best of luck with those little monsters. Surprise no egg sack still on them. Small aros are very fragile fish.
