What other fishes can u keep with silver aros?

^ +1.

Tank size isn't an issue for most of the fish you could want to keep with a silver provided the tank is big enough for the silver. (it makes me laugh and cringe at the same time, my interest in the aro forum here waxes and wanes, I won't check it for months and then start reading it again, and every time I come back Brian is still here trying to explain to people why you can't keep a 3' fish in a 180g tank...)

Generally speaking, if its big enough to not be eaten, and not so aggressive it will beat on the aro, and not so big it will eat the aro then you can keep it with a silver............

To be honest it's rife everywhere; you need only think of a large fish of some description and someone will be trying to keep it in a tiny tank and will still have the ordacity to get up in arms when someone tells them they're wrong. Best bet is to try not to get annoyed by it...!

But, in answer to the question, while I don't pretend to be an expert in Arowana specifically, like with any aggressive/large fish, give them enough room and generally, you don't see too many issues. Not that that helps you, since your tank is too small.

I've never had any problem whatsoever with rays, plecos, or nocturnal armored catfish. The cats aren't the most exciting, but those are all as safe as they get just so theyre well fed.

I keep my aros with peacock bass and a tigrinus cat. No big issues.

Saw a guy on craigslist selling a 16" Redtail cat today. Said if you have at least a 180g this is the fish for you... That cat won't be able to turn around in 6 months.

I feel sorry for the fish.

you can keep bichirs with one but perferred lower jaw bichirs since they get alot bigger than upper jaw. you can also keep flagtails and datnoids too but make sure the datnoid is over 10" haha

Why don't you get an Australian arowana, they don't grow so big or as fast but they do tend to be mot aggressive and may not be good with many tank mates
