In my opinion, 4" is way too small to keep in a pond. And the 14" fish will definitely try to eat it.

Just get another 15-gal (2 ft) tank with a sponge filter to keep the Aro till he about 7-8 inches. (Or put a small partition in any one of your tanks to give 2ftx1ft foot-print for the 4" Aro.) This will work for a few months.

besides the fact that its too small to be with other fish, and its going to be eaten like everybody else said, yes the possibility of jumping is there too, I lost a 2' jardini(pearl) arowana when it jumped out of my pond
