fish2die4 Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 Hi All, Just thought i would share my joy in adviseing people out there that you CAN join just 2 aros successfully together. I have taken a massive chance but it has paid off.. i dont have pics or video YET? i intend to get some some how. 1 is 35-40cm and the other is 20-25cm and they are housed in a6 x2x2. the big one is big enough too eat the small one but its funny because once i merged them, it was like motherly instinct of the big one mothering the smaller one.. The small one even tries to go the big ones rear tail but the big one doesnt care and shrugges it off. Neither seem to be stressed and im hoping to keep them together if the merge lasts. Ive heard when at breeding age the male nips the females tail to start the breeding process? Does anyone know anything different? N e ways i will try to put up pics when possible.. Cheers and thanks for reading Stan P.S I think silvers have the best shape and finnage of all the aros they just lack the colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mango4Jade Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 Cool, apparently keeping aros in large numbers have been achieved already. But, its nice to know that a fellow aussie loves their aros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henryliu Posted May 21, 2005 Share Posted May 21, 2005 that's cool. Silver aro is not much aggressive compare to other arowana when silver is mature. also, I knew the aro need at least 5-6 years old above for breeding. i think 20cm aro is still in Juv.
