ohh...jz watched ur video, i recommend u to remove the submersible light...put it above water level...so far, i notice fishes with sub light usually turn out to be with DE after prolong use of it...
is either u put it at the bottom or u hang it, like how i did...but i still think put all the lights above water level is best lo...coz will not strain their eyes... Added on July 8, 2010, 10:56 pmthen ur room light on that time, the tank were covered right? This post has been edited by leggedy: Jul 8 2010, 10:56 PM |

if can a, give it total darkness...darkness will force ur aro to use it's barble and stop using eye sight...perhaps this way can let its eyes rest...only light from above will do good..like that it will look above...and when u throw in food also look above...side tank all total darkness, dun let light go through...coz a little lighting going thru also, ur aro will get nervous and try to peep out what's behind it..

QUOTE(BenSow @ Jul 8 2010, 10:14 PM) I jus posted above... it works on my silver aro... someone's aro didnt eat for 2 months b4 i read... they're cold blooded so thy do not nid to eat so much... thanks for the comment Added on July 8, 2010, 10:19 pm any kind doesnt matter... if its able to handle the bio load its ok. watch for: Liters/H- should be trice ur tank volume. (eg tank volume is 200L. ur powerhead should be able to take care at least 600L/H(easily obtained) most powerheads go over 100L/H. The higher the better.

aro will never outgrow RTC..even if u got a 6footer..best is still aro alone...
1) clean, easy to maintain 2) u concentrate all on aro, wel balance diet 3) enug space for it to swim 4) aro in 6footer will goes up to about 2.5feet - 3.5feet...depend of breed... think again whether u wanna keep RTC, they are super heavy eater...with big mouth, will not know when it gonna bang ur aro when it gets hungry.. |

QUOTE(pigpig @ Jul 8 2010, 11:33 AM) Can post a pic of the pearls u guys talking about.? Pearls is the small tiny scales near to the dorsal fin of an aro. Some peoples call it 'chu'. Refer to the red circle area from the picture.  Picture is borrowed from AroFanatics forum to give you guys a better clear picture regarding pearls.  Frenly, in some case DE is caused from the gene itself. So, no cure for it. But if you want to try, FGT is one of the best method to cure it. But again you will patience. It will take months to cure it. I dunno how long, but from my reading of others bro experience, the duration will be more than 2 months. This post has been edited by saif_bear: Jul 9 2010, 08:18 AM |

The price is depends on size. well, i don't mind the time spent to cure the DE how much will a FGT cause?
