reply to haters on last thread

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I do think it has drop eye but hey alot of aro's have drop eye and I dont think that takes away from the fact its gorgeous! Ive known alot of aros (including a 3ft one at my lfs I call bob and he too has drop eye) and yours is very cool, it looks like it has some sort of bronze/silver armour on
 
yea, the aro has DE but it still looks good :)

i heard you if you put 3-5 floating ping pong balls that a aro will have something to look at and will probally not get de looks like a nice aro

unfortunately thats total bs. DE is most probably due to genetics. not sayin it for sure is, but I know ping pong balls sure as hell don't do a damn thing

Im not sure about that being bs. But i do know DE is not genetic. DE is caused by the fish which keeps looking down in search for food tht sinks, for example prawns. Breeders here use crickets for food as they float. So the way i understand it is that cricket which floats made the arowana looks up and prawns which lies at the bottom of the aquarium made it look down. So ping pong balls might idk nvr tried it before. Have u cared for an arowana before?

ps. not the best color but nevertheless its still a cool fish.

This is not the place for a DE discussion, do a little research and you'll soon find that your "looking down for food" theory is not valid.
 
^^^ agreed.

it doesnt matter what the fish looks like as long as the owner likes it. You get what you want in a fish by how you take care of it.
