I just got a 2inch Silver Aro today it looks neat =) yay. More like my bf paid for most of him and then I got to keep him at my house untill he gets bigger. So just out of curiosity we've owned one from 2inch to 12 inches then it died =( but I dont remeber it small is it normal they have a yellow outline on their fins and around the gills when they are little? though it looked odd, but non the less its still awesome looking :D so I am happy just thought that I would share!
 
just make sure he doesn't have his yolk on him still, :)

how do you tell that? it doesnt look like yolk to me what would that look like?
 
yah I am acclimating it when hes actually in the tank I'll take pics, prob post them up tomorrow so check back!
 
Ash, you couldn't miss the yolk sac if it was there. It would be a yellowish orange glob hanging down from the belly of the fish. Here is a pic:

oh then no it doesnt.... lol. I am new with small arowana, it just has yellow coloring on its fins and near its gill area but nothing hanging =)
 
aweeesome, thats a pretty good sign with your young aro's. What size tank do you have the little dude in, any tankmates :)
