[Javinguyen]

Hi arowana-lovers,
I just started to feed the red aro.
My size about 35cm
And I want to ask about the tanning:
-Which light bulbs were good for tanning?
-Bulbs have to have a Uva/Uvb?
-Then how many hours can I tan my fish per day?
Otherwise I wanna ask about push my fish size bigger like sumo lolz
May you guys give me some advices?
Thks so much,experts!

You Asians are crazy. Why would you tan your fish?

Dont tan them until they are 8-10" feed them food that bring out color like pellets or shrimp. start with 4hrs a day for your first month. then move up 6 to 8hrs a day.

Yes use UVB light HOWEVER, you must use the light directly to the fish, do not have glass or acrylic under the light. your best bet is get submersible tanning like directly inside the water. Hope this help
