Hey all!!

I've run into some problems with my Silver Aro.
Unfortunately my Aro is still in the 55 it originally started in and I'm pretty sure that it is time to upgrade him. He is about 16" long.
My father is a firm believer of no gravel so he can clean easier but the Aro does not seem to be doing well. His fins are all torn looking, he seems to lose a scale or two here and there.

Is there any possibly way I can help him out while he spends a little more time in the 55? He has no tank mates at the moment either.
I'll take a picture of him for you all.

Thanks!

Upgrade the tank is your best bet.
 
Check the water parameters.. Since there r no tankmates.. He could be hurting himself by banging in to the sides of the tank or he could be sick...

What would be the next possible size you reccomend?
I've got a 75 Gallon Acrylic at work that could come home. I'm just starting to run out of room for these tanks.

Here is what I have at the moment.
155Bowfront with a RTC, CK, Bluegill and Largemouth
75 Pbass and TSN
and a couple smaller tanks.

I really want to put the Aro in the 155 but I'm not sure if he would be safe.

The RTC is 20". The CK is easily 16". The Bluegill is about 9-10" and the bass about 10".
Do you think it would be ok? The RTC will be moved in the next month to something bigger.
