get a baby snakehead. i think as long as it grows with the aro and you keep her well fed she wont see the aro as food

there are many different snakeheads with many different demands.. most of the large channa have a mean streak. I'm not saying it can't be done but you can't expect it to work, it takes luck.
Ya bad idea... if you raise them together from a small size it MIGHT work, but if your arowana is already larger and you stick a small snakehead with a it'll get eaten, and if you stick a big snaklehead in who isant accustom to his tank mate he'll likly kill the arow... I wouldnt risk it... it wouldnt take much for a large snakehead to take have a mood swing and take a chunk out of your other tankmates...
Hi,like already said it can be done but it has to be carefully done, matching the same requirements of both.
I know that everyone has there theories about this fish and that fish. But a while back my buddy got 2 snakeheads from a couple and put em in his 100 gallon with his midas jd oscar african leaf fish and his flowerhorn.
all the fish kept to themselves and were nice.
You take a risk putting 2 tetras in the same tank i think. Theories are great but no matter what anyone sais you will have no idea what the fish will do together until you put them in there. I would be careful and watch them as snakeheads tend to be a more aggressive fish and i know if i had an arowana i wouldnt want some snake head coming along and gobbling it up

It’s not a theory with snakeheads lol... They EAT other fish that’s a fact, if your snakehead is bigger then a tank mate the tank mate is food,
In some of the more docile species of snakehead they will tolerate larger/same sized tank mate's unless breeding... a breeding pair of snakeheads will kill EVERYTHING. Do even the slightest bit of research and you'll find this information is consistent.

It could work but, i wouldnt risk it inless you do some reasearcdh and find one that will match well with the arow..
GOOD LUCK
