wow............. all I can say is WOW! I always wanted to keep an arowana,... but the funds for a massive tank is,... hard to come by for a 14 year old how big a tank do you keep the arowana in? It looks MUCH bigger than a 180. Nice sting ray too

Well im 15yrs old and i bought ALL the fish and tank myself and it is only a 120g not a 180. A 180g is the minimum for a silver arow a 210 or a 300g is best.

that giant gourami is going to outgrow your 120g pretty quick; the general figure quoted around here is 500g.

I'm 15 too , and i have 7 tanks! (small ones)

Nice fish, that stingray is really awsome. What are the dimentions of your tank? Also for a silver arowana, i wouldnt keep one in a 180 gal as the minimum, i wouldnt put a silver in any tank that was shorter than 14ft long. They can get around 4ft in captivity so even a 300 wouldnt suit them in my opinion.
Really nice fish and tank!

Thanks for all the comments, and the secerent to getting lots of cash in a sort period of time is "EBAY"

Acctually the only reach a maximum of 3ft in a HOME aquaria, but in a public aquaria much bigger sizes are achived, as srows are flexiable a 30" arow can turn round quite happily in a 2ft space, on another website there is a guy whos silver is 28" long in a 6x2x2 and she laid her eggs, so she must be happy enough to feel safe to do that .

I also have a 60g, and 2x10g and a 30g as well as my 120g.

She laid eggs did she? Thats funny as being arowanas are mouth brooders not substrate spawners.

/me sits and giggles with CFC...

Lookslike you have some nice fish there though, although i'm not a fan of gars, they simply grow TOO big for tanks generally and and have an even more voracious apetite than arrowanas...

Well you know what i mean, and acctually they do lay eggs then the male picks them up in his mouth puts them in a special pouch and fertilises them, only she did not have a male t do that.

Here is a video of how arowanas repoduce.

I think i know who he's talking about, but the tank only had a female, so no fertilization hence no mouth brooding. I saw pics

Rust, nice fish, but i hope you're doing more business on ebay to pay for an upgrade tank in the near future
