I have a Silver arrow in a devided tank with some juvie p-bass and want to keep the temp high to ward off any ich problems with the p-bass...

What would be the highest safe temp for the arowana? I'd like to be around 87F for the p-bass

I'll soon have a dedicated tank for the p-bass so I can get the temp back to ~-82 for the arow...
 
I would stay around the 84 degree range and do it slowly. your pbass will do fine at this temp.
 
my tank got up to 87 on a hot summer day, and my aro didnt seem to like it very well. He acted really sluggish, but it could have been coincidence.
 
My tank goes from 84.4-85.5 throughout the day. and my fish seem to love it.
 
Back in August my tank got up to 86 degrees for a day. My Silver wouldn't eat and was acting strange.
