Sorry guys about all the questions but my arowana is acting strange.

Rays being rays, I guess that even with 10% of the water remaining they're still fully submerged ?

Prior to my aro I used to drain water until the fins of my fish touch both the substrate and the water surface. them being large angels meant that it was around 80-85% (according to my super accurate eyeballing)

angels being tall...doubt it be 80-85% unless you have small angels or very tall tanks

that being said, i am also changing 80-85% for my aro

And about the people here: they know what they are talking about but if you listen to all of them you'll have an olympic pool sized tank and a tool shed sized sump ??? j/k of course

An olympic sized swimming pool? Pfft, that might hold them...... For a few weeks then you gotta get a bigger tank. Only a tool sized shed sump? You might as well take the water out and replace it with liquid feces. Get that out of here with. Humph, people talking about tool shed sized sumps.... Makes me question my sanity at times....

then my super accurate eyeballing technique needs fine tuning XD

while on that topic I idkjardiniagressive? there's also a thread somewhere discussing several smaller wc vs one large wc. might be a good read.

And again, don't overthink what you are doing. just plan when you are doing it and how. with time you'll find the most efficient way

From my experience: my 2 aquariums really only take me 15mins a day to tender. this includes inspecting the fish, the tank and feeding. and I sorta hand feed the arowana (and sometimes the betta lol)
