Plz check this YouTube link

Is it still not eating? I see you didn't take my advice regarding too many bubbles in your tank....Also you also still haven't answered our question about ambient room temperature....If you ignore advice or don't reply to questions, you'll find people reaching out to help you less and less, just saying.

That fish is in extreme stress, and is swimming with its tail down.

You need a bigger tank, reduce the flow current and bubbles in the tank.

You need to remedy the issues, else this will develop into swim bladder and, you will lose the fish

That's good Gaurav, though keep in mind as per our earlier posts a 4 ft is only a temporary fix -- it'll need a bigger tank within about 6 months; when eating and healthy they grow really fast.

It may take a few days to settle into that new tank, but let us know how it goes, hope it starts swimming regularly and eating soon.

Whats the background noise of the video?

It may be a longshot but if its a fairly busy place the arowana may be stressed from all the people and action around it.

Hi Experts,

Golden Crossback Arowana originally came from Malaysia, and they are generally considered to breed the best Golden Crossbacks (though esp. Singapore produces some comparable level Golds).

Indonesia on the other hand is well-known for the quality of its Red Arowana. However their Red Tail Golden Arowana are also quite popular and if from a good farm will be good quality fish. Compared to Gold Crossbacks though RTG are less expensive, (usually) not quite as colorful (often more copper colored than gold), and have less (if any) shine/color crossing the back and head. Generally less pearling near the tail fins as well.

As such if money isn't an issue most would prefer to have a Malaysian Gold Crossback instead of an Indonesian RTG. That said some would be happy to have either, they're both cool fish.
