Does anybody find that one kind of arowana over another has more problems with deformities. I have been told you find less problems with RTG's.

A person can't do much with fin deformaties or protruding lower jaw as these are more of a genetic defect.
Gill curl can be avoided with appropriate tank size,good maintenance and clean water.
But what about drop eye? Has anyone been able to avoid drop eye through the life of their arowana? Can this really be avoided or does it eventually happen for whatever reason?
