Since arapaima are air breathing fish, it needs to go up for air. While I was at school it wedged itself under a peice of slate in my tank and couldnt go up for air so it drowned, at first I didnt believe it but then when I asked the LFS that I bought it from about it they said its happened to them before too.

So with your lack of research before buying such fish you provided a sitsuation in which the fish could die.

SO YES, THIS FISH DIED BECAUSE OF YOU, IT WAS YOUR FAULT.
 
I read plenty on this fish, thats like somebody hitting your car and them saying "its your fault for not speeding up when i was racing up behind you" and if you remember correctly I had nothing to do with buying the fish

So you are implying that it was the A. gigas fault?

So you take no responsibility for the fish you keep?

the arow is about 3 inch,im only keeping him in for 24 hours...
And what are you going to do in 24 hours? Surely you didnt think you would be able to cure ick in a day...

Deep blue sea, the fact that you even thought about being able to keep a pima for a couple months is already foolish...whether or not you actually bought the fish is irrelevant...
 
I take full responsibility for the fish I keep but when its a freak accident like that how can I just blame myself when I wasnt even at my house
 
This also isnt even on topic of the thread it has nothing to do with his arowana and as said above hes only keeping it in there for 24 hours

Are you not the one that set up the tank and created the trap?
