jardinis are also known as australian arowanas right?

thanks everyone.
can anyone recommend a diet for their colors and growth?

 

[DeLgAdO]

hikari color enhancing pellets( they also have a 40% protein level )

earth worms, market shrimp, crickets loaded with pellets and baby carrots, krill.

yup, looks like jardini's to me as well.. the price would probably tell us if its a leichardti cuz they are pretty rare compared to the jardini

feed pellets and frozen foods like shrimp for color.. you can try mussels as well

give it 6 months and you will have an empty tank as will be big enough to eat its tank mates.The growth rate is fastest for the first year. Being one of the slowest growers in the Arow family, it will generally reach about 12 inches in the first year.then slows down .
