yes..it happens when you feed them and they get too eager......mine bit me a few times..only the first time it surprises ya....

i used to freeze my SW and crickets right away....never feed the aro or tigers live ones...got them used to eating them dead ones so never had to worry about trying to keep them alive.....

interesting surgery...did u sedate the fish??...

wow great shot....full tank one with all four aros.....looks like you have a peaceful community.....min ripped/torn tails n fins.....

agreed.....i'd rather see them under natural lighting.....not NAN lights....but beautiful pcs...nice spoon heads....

nice pbass you got there.....

180g is is all you'll need....standard 6'x2'x2'....

heres an old pic of my basement.... the 180 had my PG, 4 STs and 2 ITs and 7 geos....65g in the corner had my FH....90g had my peacock bass....55g was a growout tank for the geos and dats and FF....10gs had bettas and feeders.....

recently found this forum and thought i'd drop in.....former Aro owner....had a PG RTG that i had to sell off a few years ago....sold off all my big tanks and only kept my 90 and now i'm down to just 2 STs...and 1 IT....the STs are around 12-14'' and my IT is 10" (give or take..thats my best...

great pics.....they looks so prehistoric....

kennedy and steeles area....you have 3-4 LFS that usually stock aros....Lucky`s inside Market Village.....across the street is AcquaPets.....and next plaza over you have two other stores that will have aros too....Gold Garden and i forget the name of the place just a few stores down.....both...

FH are too agressive and are best kept by themselves.....if you are going to pay hundreds for a top quality FH and even more for an aro....i wouldn`t put the two together...one is bound to kill the other.....

how big is your tank.....looks like you have a crazy bio-load going.....

the most important thing to remember when keeping aros is KEEP THE TANK SECURED....number one killer of aros..are themselves when they jump out of the tank....keep lids secured and leave zero openings....

rain is just simply depressing.....at least out east..we'll have nice sunny days still....its just the damn cold i can't stand....snow i can live with....fyi...HST is coming to all provinces...lol...

with all these big farms and their captive breeding projects all going towards making a profit....there is little to ZERO conservation effort IMO....seems like their governments dont really care all so much about replenishing aros back in their natural enviroment....the "pet" sector is too much...

save up for an RTG to go in that tank.....

too hard to tell...fish is too small...once they get around 12''..then they really start to show their full potential....hard to tell from just the two pics...but eyes look good...its gonna have a nice spoon head.....

vancouver...scenery is beautiful...ocean..mountains galore.....cost of living is much higher so also factor that into the equation.....and if you can stand the rain that they get....go for it....good luck...

geophagus are nice bottom feeders...they made great tank mates for my tigers and PG when i had them all together....they even ate SW and crix once they saw everyone else eating them....
