wahlao eh...last time i 2 blood parrots also oledy enuf shit lol
yours 6 is frankly really too much hahaha

interesting xD

any pix to show? oh yah to add rite, i found that my aro does get bored of trying to get the froggie after a while, so i wud suggest taking the froggie out for a day and then next day put back in to re-create interest haha

also dun feed till full full otherwise its full oledy it will also no interest in the froggie haha, just feed enough only xD

This theory might just work out well

too late...i buy oledy


jk'ing jk'ing lol

i just thought of something bizarre....with regards to making the aro looking upwards...


perhaps we can glue mirror to the hoods....then aro will see its own reflection above....thinking...that there is another arowana above but upside down.....

thus making it even more curious and keep looking up at his new weirdo upside down fren...

lol i want a suger glifer too haha, super adorable and intelligent!!
but next time 1st le...now aro and work is priority lol

@bensow

lol been busy man

for short 1hr max transportation to your actual proper 5x2x2.5(w) ft tank only....

i got do research la lol, for me if i want a suger glider i gonna need lotsa room for it to play in and time to play with it...currently at this point of my life i dun think i have either hahaha

when i've got my own house and rich and financially free then can start to think of these cuties....as for now, aro is quite steady and easy, just need to make sure to change water and feed the aro properly....
thats y i got my aro in my room

my aro is quite plain without the red light....
without red light, can only see the eyes are red, the fins are red and the scales slightly pinkly at its rims with slight blue hue...

for aros, thier true color will only come out when they mature....it usually starts with the cheeks, where a thin layer of colored skin coats the bony scales...from the cheeks then it moves on to progress over the scales on the body.

so based on how your tlc is will determine how well you bring out the best in your aro



here is a shot taken like a few months back without the red light and with flash.

Hey haha

Sooooo cccuuuuuteee!!!! super super cute!!!

yeah some feeder fish is ok...just make sure you quaranteen the feeder fish for like a few days first to see if they die off....those feeder fish that die off from 3 days means they are weak and possibly sick so better not feed those...

Keep the feeder fish in a seperate small aquarium. Do make sure to add some salt to wash off some parasites.

Then take the surviving feeders out and change the water for the feeder fish quaranteen tank and then give your aro eat...



Grats on your first aro!!

hehe is ok wan le, just make sure to do some wc one in a while shud be ok....
if your aro can only eat up to 4 feeders then put in like 6 healthy feeders, therefore the bloodworms will get eaten by the feeder fish lol and also give the aro some playmates to play with

Usually aro loves bloodworms wan, mine even until now still love it, but since yours is newly brought in, is best to let it settle down first....give it a week and it will have adjusted to its new home and surroundings then will start to eat normally again wan

hahaha yeah, probly its not used to frozen blood worms...

if worried about nutrition then feed the blood worms to the feeder fish loe then just after the feeder fish finish eating then give the little aro eat haha

its like that wan i guess...cuz the aro still very small...cant each much
got pleco is good enuf to do clean up liao haha....your pleco sure will go eat the uneaten food, no worries...
but rule of thumb is that uneaten food is best to take out after 15mins if not eaten

Slowly la...once it grows bigger, you will see it eat more and more wan xD

nah wont wan...just use the small net thingy to take it out. Just do it slowly loe haha....too fast of course will scare the aro

RED RED RED RED RED RED RED!!!!!

hehe my advise wud be to wait till your time to perform wc

then after you finish wc, starve the aro for 2-3days and try feeding the cut mp to the aro
that worked for me when my aro went on strike against mp....and this method worked for me


saif bro

any updates on your red?

This post has been edited by leong2084: Jun 22 2010, 02:02 PM

nice

look at the ray go up ...up and up

yeah, just make sure to quarantine the feeder fish a few days before you give you aro eat if possible.
That way less chance of kutu case

hehe so cute

got that innocent look

how come got red shine? haha from the top tank reflect until at the bottom?

oh leggedy, i think i know why oledy...is to do with the spectrum lighting.

To our eyes, the color is yellow/goldish when the light reflects from the yellow light on the arowana

but when u take the pix it will show up the color like that...

cuz in the vid there was a part where you only turn on the white light rite , thats the part where the camera see's it as yellow for the color your aro naturally is haha



thats some huge rat pleco you got there o.o hahaha

if sometimes only shud be ok la, but maybe cuz the pleco is hungry, not much algae for it to eat...

what i can suggest is to get cucumbers...

cut thin slice per day and put it at the bottom of the aquarium for the pleco to have its meal loe, then if it not that hungry it wont bother with the other fishes wan
