Green Arowana

[homebrewed]

I hate moving arowana, but today went very well. I sold his tank and will be picking up a 240 this week. Until then, he'll be in a sqaure 140gallon

These guys got moved into the pond

Thanks for the photos Homebrewed. Your green looks pretty big. How old is he/she?

Also, I like the colour patterns of your motoros. Where did you source them originally and how long have you had them?

Thanks, Theo
I wish my pictures could do him justice

He's probably 16" and I've had him for 1.5 years

I get all my rays from Fish Gallery here in Winnipeg. His selection is the best around. Lots of "royal" marbles among others as well. I need to keep pestering him to join the forum.
I've had the male for about 6 months a the female for about 9 months. Their main diet is Hikari Massivore pellets. With my hectic schedual its alot easier to throw in some pellets then clean night crawlers or thaw out shrimps.

Thanks, Mike

You need a ray like the male. The female is ho-hum. I still have my fingers crossed that she will develope more, but she is already about 11-12". Either way, I'm sure their pups will look good down the road
