Woah 250 :O how much u getting for. Tiger nose cat fish has black / white strips ? It's like 150 for a 2 inch one right
It was a beast! Thing was well over 3 feet and fat as heck
What size tank did you have a 3ft aro in
To tell the truth I can't stand silver aros
You have a 99.9% chance that it will get drop eye a condition when one eye starts to hang down
If you live in the US you have 5 options for Arowana
Silver
Black
African Arowana
Jardini
Leicheti (spelt wrong)
The black aro is the best option as they look like silver but stay smaller and don't get drop eye
Lei are rare and expensive
Jardini are super aggressive and you won't be able to keep other fish with it once it gets past 12" the good thing is they stay smaller at 24" and can live in a 6x2
African aro don't look like an aro
If you live anywhere else apart from the US then get a Asian aro yes they are expensive for the better colour ones but you can get a green for about £150
Asian aro are the top of the high end fish market I paid close to $2,000 for my chilli red
Do they need to be kept in schools?
T1 you use in the USA :O ?
No I live in the UK
As for keeping more than one it can work but chances are slim
You need to buy min 6 and let them grow together then pair off around 14"
This will only work with silver or asain aros
Jardini will kill each other fast even if you had 20 they wod kill each other fast
Asan aros are very expensive I had a tank full of about 12 Asian aros worth about $1800-2000
I had them in a 350g hoping to get a pair
The only way to get a pair is to pack loads into a small space if you give then to much room they will rip each other to bits
