heres an adult image, get a larger one if possible, the juveniles are delicate and the cichlids might be too much for them if the aro is under 9-12 inches, also how wide is the tank, it should be more than 1 metre wide. sry thats all i can provide for you, i don't know much more about them in the aquarium

If you can get an arowana over 1ft he should be fine with your stock and also blacks are mostly wild caught so. Chances are you'll get a pure
