It can work, odds are though that it will not work. The only way you will find out is to give it a try, but in order to do this you need to be able to immediately separate the arowana if things go bad. Deciding tankmates also has alot to do with what size tank you are willing to upgrade to.


Also, fire eel and tire track eel both can grow to be over 36"

I keep three silvers with a fgar,7 bichirs and two mono pbass. So far everything is good.

I ended up getting a clown knife from my lfs for $14.50. It is very healthy and is about 3"-4". Already took sinking shrimp pellets =)
