How do you keep them from jumping from a pond? I have always wondered...

How do you keep them from jumping from a pond? I have always wondered...

well i think it all comes down to a few things:

1.) make sure the arowanas are large and confident enuf to not be intimidated by the other pondmates.
2.) make sure they are well fed and fat (seems to make them more calm LOL)
3.) provide LARGE open spaces so that they never feel trapped or cornered.
4.) make sure u dont keep them with aggressive pond mates
5.) PRAY! ive had 1 jump from my arow, luckily my helper saw and put him back in. so far i havent had any accidents from any of my fish :s *fingers crossed*
