NEED advice FOR my super-RED TANKMATES...

[aro-discus]

definitely im gonna get a bigger tank...maybe after 6mnth lookd upon my baby growth perharps im gonna get atleast a 5ft tank...maybe bigger!! i would like 2 raise frm small nw...juz worried it will be harm!
btw....'aro-discus' the spoon shark that ive tried definitely wouldnt fit my baby's mouth bt this aro bite the spoon shark fins....luckily i managed 2 save him

Whats a spoon shark? couple of nipped fins are not so bad since fins grow back easy.

I've tried to add a fei feng that almost got blasted by my aro. good thing I saved him. I guess it depends on the the individual fishes temperament whether or not they will tolerate tankmates.

the specific name for the shark i wouldnt noe bt dats wht ive being told the name is SPOON SHARK! will post it later.....

 

[manbai]

here's what that they called SPOON SHARK!!

 

[Onion01]

that's an american paddlefish. cold water fish. not a good mix. If you get a big enough tank, a aro/ray combo looks magnificent. dats as well

From what I have read, mixing aros is usually not a good idea because of aggression. Aro community tanks seem to have many aros in a crowded space to spread out the aggression but I still see some torn fins. I am not planning on mixing any aros with mine. It's tankmates are tinfoil barb, silver dollars, rays, tiger dat.

its best to mix aros with other fish from a very young age

if you let the aro grow to say 12inch without tank mates chances are he will reject any other fish you try to keep with him
