hi can i keep large silver dollars with silver arrowanwa 24inch ive been offered 8 at 9cm in lenth any advice would be helpfull
 
How large of a tank. Since there is a large group of them they should be alright, and they are deep bodied so the aro may not bother them. Some have said that SD have bothered the aro. Try it and see what happens
 
I think that silver dollars that are that small might be at risk. they are quick but both a 10" tsn and a 24" aro can quite easily eat a 3 1/2" silverdollar, if they were bigger it would be a different story.
 
The metynnis argenteus usually only gets to 6", you would be better off with blackbar dollars or redhook dollars that get to around 16"
