i just scored a tank and i will keep the size secret for now, but i assure you i will do another in the future for the last tank that can keep a school of arowanas.
got the tank and all that craps for $50 :naughty:, i dont like the filter that comes with it and will do an upgrade..it is now cycling fishlessly..and going to buy jumbo neons for the sacrificial again aka test fish the aro dinner.
my silver aro still do not want pellets.
here it is the pic of the new home.

will up-date some more with the progress, comments and critique is welcome, insults just keep it to your own fish.
 
You want to keep the size a secret? Yet you post a pic of a 55g tank :ROFL:
 
does not look like a 55.. looks bigger to me...
 
what do you guys think of fluval canister fx5 as its filteration, they say its rated for up to 400G aquarium?
 
It's a very good filter, but I would not rely on one alone for anything close to a 400 gallon tank unless it had only a couple of feeder goldfish for stock.

It is a decent affordable canister filter that would be good to move to the upgraded larger tanks as your arowana grows
 
i would lay off feeding live and frozen as well, those kind the only thing he will eat :(
its been 3 days he ate no live, he's eating frozen for now, every thing i put in pellet he would just glance and move-away..
btw how much would you pay for slightly used FX5 that comes with everything?
 
$150 maybe?
