i just re-measured my tank...its like 4ft in length and 1.5ft in width and 1.6ft in height..... what concerns me most is the width :S i scared cannot turn well lol....but if i buy an arowana about 5-7inch....it will take about 1 year to reach about 12inch which shud be ok i guess @.@ then the growth slows down....and i will have aproximately another year (2 years in total) to get a 5x2x2 or larger tanik rite?
Wud it really be ok? sorry lol
i also planning to keep the gravel in there....1) to make it look nice ( i guess less glare from the light reflection on the ground) 2) for my undergravel filter to continue to be in use (i'm using a eheim 400 filter too no worries lol)
for mine of that size i guess i'll have to remove most of the plants to make space :S
