Just considering some ideas for a new tank, thinking the tank will be some where around the 7'x3'x2.5'. Would like to do an arowana community tank I'm thinking as I had one before but not sure on quantity for this size of tank? Any advice or recommendations would be great!
So whats the golden rule these days for how many Arowana in a Tank?

- Start date
Thanks for the reply, I'm in Canada so I can have Asian Aros. Was thinking maybe 4?
Def not 4. Maybe 2. Trust us when we say fish never sound big till you have a 18” fish in front of you. However, you could do 2 and other bottom dwellers. Realistically aros need at least 8 ft length when they’re adults but you’ll have time
In general though most agree on this site that any kind of aro needs a minimum of 8x3.5 but 8x3 can work for a few years. that being said the tank minimum for 1 is the same minimum for 2. For every ft in length or width after that you can add another 1. After like 12x5 you can just JDM the tank should you want
