Thanks Pimpim for the info. I heard there is pet expo coming up in MidValley this weekend. Hoping to see some big fishes there.
Lee, can you show me your setup for your arapaima ? Pimpin as well? It will be helpful for me. Thanks in advance and please, no hurry and no obligations. Only if you guys are comfortable.
Here are some of my ponds, not every single pond as there are at least two mud ponds (one over quarter acre easily) and two concrete ponds (one small, the other 40,000gal). If and when I do go to those houses, I'll get pictures. Sorry about the quality of the pictures but I don't own a camera

Hi guys, I am suddenly craving for Arapaima! anybody have any photos to share? Would greatly appreciate...
Will try to look for fins & greens this weekend...hope I can find it.
Regards
You want to go this weekend? Call me, we'll meet up somewhere and I'll guide you there. Or if you're feeling adventurous just try Google Maps or something like that and you'll find it. Very easy, got 4D/Magnum shop on one end and tire shop on the other. Just after the market/snooker center in OUG. It's basically the row of shops facing the houses. If you can find Steven's Corner, you can definitely find FnG. My car is almost always parked outside haha. Landmark also tu..

Hi lee, that is just lovely and what I needed! Temporary satisfaction for me until I get mine.
Now the question is, how slow can it be for an arapaima to grow in say 2 years? From a small 6 incher perhaps? My new pond will not be ready in at least 2 years but I really want to start keeping one now. So trying to gauge the timing before it outgrow the aquarium. I only have space for an 2 1/2 feet aquarium now.
Meanwhile, anybody else, keep the photos coming.
I suggest you get the ponds ready first. Sort of like what I'm doing now. No point having the fish when you don't already have its home for life ready especially given its rapid growth. For a 6in fish, in 2 years can only fit in you aquarium if you bend it in half hahah j/k
But seriously, they grow FAST.

Pimpin, I dont mind to see it in person of course provided you are comfortable with me coming to your place. Otherwise i'll just wait for photos, no hurry as the house will not be up anytime soon. Have a long time to go, just doing my research early and hope to start with small monster fish in aquarium, for experience sake, before putting them in that pond.
What are good to share the same pond with Arapaimas? I usually see some giant catfish or gar. And Fly River Turtles
Yeah, sure one of these days. Perhaps we can meet up at Fins and Greens this weekend. For all you know, you can't stand me in person
Ultimately, I plan to have Arapaimas, Gars, RTCs and Sterlets all together in one pond. Massive amount of tilapia feeders so that there is no reason for them to attack each other. The Sterlet has the slowest growth but I don't foresee any problems as they are now with RTCs double their size and no problems so far.
Fly River Turtles is one thing I don't have but past couple weeks have been reading up on them. I like the fact they're pretty much aquatic turtles but the pond I have in mind might not have sufficient direct sunlight and being reptiles, I don't know if they need to be in the sun to regulate body temperature or whatever.
ggMing - FRT boleh source or not? For me sure can source anything right
