Wow! That would be amazing! Even if I could afford the tank and supplies and stick I could keep up with the water bill!
Definitely post pics when it's done.
What other sizes of tanks do you have?
Do you have a sketch of your plan?

Arowanas breed the same as Saratogas. Males display to females and she lays the eggs. One of them picks up the eggs and carries them in a buccal pouch until they hatch. The babies stay with the adult until they are about 6 inches long and then swim off.

The adults don't mature until they are about 2 foot long. They don't need much apart from lots of space, clean water and a varied diet.

Before you breed them, please make sure that you will have reasonable homes for them to go to, some people will attempt to keep them I'm 55 gallon tanks or 75 gallon tanks. There are already so many out there in the market that will be going to terrible homes.
What do you plan to do with the fry?

One question, where would you sell the fry?

Wouldn't it get overrun?

Unless they have enough room they usually fight and kill each other off. Then you are left with one fish.

How do you carry out water changes on such large tanks? What is your water bill?
