My aros

[Dragonguy]

Here are my aros.

My over crowded 210g
Does my jardini look like a low quality blue base x-back?

My black aros used to be in my 180g but my snakehead was trying to kill them.

180g
The two silver aros were traded and the two blacks aros were move to my 210 tank. This tank is now home to my forest snakehead and some bichirs.

The looking of your 180 g is nice, with plants and view.
The Jardini in your 210 g, to be honest with you, is just something. Please never enjoy him as kind of x-back. I mean, if you know what is a real cross back, you will never talk a jardini with cross back in the same time, even though a low grade cross back. They are totally different.
Again, I love your 180 g set up.

Thanks!
Yeah I know Jar are not to be compared with a x-back. The reason I said it because most jars I've seen are just plain bronze golden. I compared it to my other jar and they look different. My other jar is just plain bronze.

Thanks man. Too bad they will be gone soon. I'm planning on selling them as I have no more room in my tank.

I love all my fish so it's hard for me to sell them all. I'm not just into aros but also predatory fish and any oddballs. I'm already getting 4 more tanks in next 2 months.

I feel you bro. I remember how I loved my silver, even though he was "only" a silver. I used to be an "arofanatic", but I guess I turned more into a "monster fish keeper"...

Your planted tank looks really good, gives me a lot of ideas... Are the plants real?

Yes they are real. Fake plants only traps debris and causes the ammonia to rise.
I don't know why so many people don't keep plants and aros together. Aros are top level swimmer and they don't bother plants.
