I have a 100 gallon with...

5 indo dats. 2.5' - 3.'
1 Delhezi. 4.5'
1 clown loach. 2.5'
1 occeleris pbass. 2.5 inches

My next tankmate is the African arowana.
Water Change and Filter Change. Check
Filter feeding. check.
Food. bloodworms. check.


What are some precautions? Suggestions? Support? :confused: Help please.
 
Clown loaches are a schooling fish, should be in a group of 5. African aros are extremely hard to raise, I would reseach and then research even more before atempting to raise. It would be best to raise the african aro in a solitary tank.
 
Thanks Bderick67, for the info. by the way, nice fishes you got there. :] Clown loaches in a group of 5. Got it. African aros...the friends have been telling me to get em. I just want a nice looking top dweller. That is also compatible to market shrimp and bloodworms and most importantly, the fishes i have currently.

A silver aro that is selling for 5.99 at sunset fishstore? a golden gourami? or an african aro? Or anyother suggestions for a top dweller? :]]]]]]]]]Help meeeee~!
 
Gourami's and African Butterfly fish are top dwellers. Also, you should be feeding your fish a more varied diet then just bloodworms. Ever thought of a flake/pellet staple?
The more clown loaches the merrier as the wurm puts it. And he's never wrong about clowns.

Yes, i know they are top dwellers...except the Butterfly one. No idea what that is. I dont feed them just bloodworms...i feed them market shrimp as well. im planning on buying vitachem and the garlic thing to enhance my shrimps. Do you think that would be enough for a nutritional diet? If not, what kind of flakes and pellet should i purchase? I will gradually increase in clown loaches. Thanks Mystix!
 
I don't beleive an african aro is a surface dweller and your tank is too small to house a silver aro for more then a year. Look into the african butterfly fish that mystix suggested, this fish would work good for your sitsuation.
