I’d say move that outflow of your canster to the surface and that will make your aro be more active, this may help district your aro and make him less skidish. They can be a pain sometimes and really are wimps.
i used to have the canister pointed outwards into the tank, but the aro would just get in the corner and face the outflow n sit there. do you think they get less skittish over time or will he always be that wimpy?
Had a couple of Arowana at different time periods the last Arowana I had jumped out and died I grew him/her from 4 inches to 14 inches. Fed it Hikari food sticks, Tilapia, Freeze dried Meal worms and Crickets. The Cricket won't harm the Aro they have a bony tongue.
oh im sorry to hear that. hopefully you get back into them you sure know quite a lot and an aro would be lucky to have u with so much experience as its owner plus they are just so freaking majestic. thanks for all the help tonight i rlly appreciate it
hopefully! i read somewhere that silver arowana just skittish creatures by nature and if so thats hella dumb such a strong and badass looking creature just for it to be a wimp for life LOL
He will eventually get used to whatever is putting him off. I’ve had aros spook when I walked past the tank or even entered the room.
i think he has like trauma or smt from when the oscars ganged up on him or smt as stupid as it sounds LOL. but i do think thats why he is so skittish. hopefully he gets used to me and knows to come up to the glass for food like other owners experience i think its so neat how they come up to you knowign u have food.
