Yes i got a 20 inch in my 150 and its fine...people would disagree and say u need a 500 or bigger but its BS.u should be fine

Yes it is BS to keep a 20" arowana in a 150g tank.
 
i also got a 12 inch motoro sting ray and 2 12 inch irredecent sharks, and a 10 inch clown knife with the 20 inch arowana in my 150

everyone on this site is funny. stunting happens everywhere. Its just about impossible to get an aro to full size in a tank unless u can provide a pond. Stunting is part of fish keepin
Considering theres a great number of people with aros over 30", stunting is definitely not a part of fish keeping, some with aros in tanks closing in or beyond the 3' mark, definitely not "impossible" to get an aro to fullsize in a tank...Im not trying to put you off as a bad fish keeper, but the reality is, you've got some bad practices going on. Take it however you like, it might make you feel better to deny the fact that stunting your fish in undersized tanks is not a normal thing, but clearly that is the case if the majority of people with ample tank sizes are able to get maximum growth out of their aros.

If you can find one and afford it i totally agree but thats not always the case.

Then you need to find a different fish to keep.

Sound like you still have room for more. You Obviously have no concern about your fish, your only concern is your own selfish desires. Tell you what post back here in a year, hell even 6 months and let us know how things are going then. Sad very sad indeed.
