If its really pure genetics, then its pretty much impossible to prevent it.

doubt it. with the reflection from all angles, and small space it is more prone to get DE

Yeah....

But do wild caught Silver arows have DE?

Maybe, but until someone decides to completely wrap their tank with black paper and seal off the tank from all sources of light, we can't really say that this is a definite.

Ive never seen any wild caught with DE... if anyone on this board has any that they caught personally please share..

That I dont know. I've never seen a wild caught silver over 16" and its usually after 16" that they start getting DE

IMHO I raised my Arowana from a baby, and it seemed fine and I introduced a new fish, and not long after maybe 3 or 4 days he got drop eye in one of his eyes, I think its due to stress but like previously stated its not a proven fact on how this is caused.
