First off i have always wanted a silver arowana and have always been keeping my eye out for a tank large enuff for one. Recently i found a tank thats measurements 84"L x 22"H x 22"D. Which if you do the math is approximately 175 gallons. I wondered if this is large enough to house a silver arrowana for life.
Silver Arowana Tank Question

Gallon wise it would be okay, but the dimensions are going to make it difficult for him to turn around. It's not even 2 ft deep. A full grown Arowana is between 3-4.
More like between 2-3', a 3'+ aro in captivity is extremely rare, and I believe the world record wild caught silver aro was 47", so the chances of one getting even close to 4' in captivity are very slim. Other than that, I agree with your post, the minimum tank size for a silver is a standard 180g (6x2x2).calcnerd;4163047; said:
