Pectoral flicking

[frozen-fire]

I've noticed that once in a while, my red arowana would flick one of it's pectoral fins. It's very quick...as if it was twitching it's fin muscle. I haven't seen this in the past aros i've had. Could it be something I should be worried about? Perhaps some kind of irritation?

The fish eats endlessly, always stuffing itself... on a diet of FD shrimp, lots of superworms, and thawed out frozen shrimp.
Currently in a 120G with 2 x Rena XP4 canisters running.
25% water change once a week to one and a half weeks.

Don't worry..it is eating and leading a normal life.

everything you are doing sounds great and he fish sounds very healthy. no signs of any sickness. maybe just a nervous twitch? you know how freakish aros can be.

Good to hear that it's normal

Just thought it was kind of weird cause it seemed as though the fish was trying to scratch itself with it's fin...like it was itchy.

Hey did your fish survive? Mines is doing this really random twitch of it's head, and sometimes of its entire body. I quarantined it and made a thread about it. I'm very concerned =/ http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1984803#post1984803
