Whats the deal with arowanas

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I have a Silver Arowana. And it is my prize fish ! he's around 9/10 inch he eats from my hand and glides gracfully through the water sliceing the waters surface occasionally with his barbels an his dorsal fin.

He has NO ! enemys in my tank and nobody bullys him also he hasn't bullyed any of the fish i keep NOW ! although he did attack my gar and unfortunatly i had to get rid of him !

I'd re-think your STARTING POST go off and lean a thing or two about them then buy one ! and you with then fall in love with the AROWANA!

I love your Semaprochilodus taeniurus ( Flagtail Prochilodus ) or ( silver Prochilodus ) what ever you like to call them it's a fish which i'm trying to get hold of but i'm struggling at the moment !

Love the red aro too great looking fish !
 
I have never been interested in the look of aros but I can appreciate thier size and grace.

thanks mate, the flag tail is growing on me. i bought it at first to help keep my tank clean but it has since stoped keeping it clean and just eating normal foods instead of the algea, i dont mind though as its still cleaning up the tiny bits of left overs up.

the aro is an electric blue based cross back, i did fancy a red but i decided to get the xback, its a much nicer fish imo.
