ok, that shud be fine.

Bro, it take times to help to improve its appetite la. In the meantime, u can pour some vitamin to avoid further complication.

Monitor for few more days, don't throw in any thing 1st. Then try feed it with market prawn.
Trust me, unless your aro is addicted to insects like crickets and worms, better feed them with market prawn.

Quickly remove the worms if your aro doesn't pick it up, don't leave it there.
The ideal response is your aro will eat the worms straight when you throw it in.

Market prawn means prawn selling in pasar. U can get it pasar pagi or supermarket like Jusco and TheStore.
Those in medium size and in grey color. Dont buy those orange color one.

Can, no problem. But dont keep for too long lar. Usually my MP will be kept max for 1 week only.
For your aro's size now, de-shell it first then cut into small pieces for easy swallow..

Agreed.

Bro xowangzi, remember not to rush to feed ur aro.

It's totally up to your preference bro. If you would like to make it more natural like a river wildlife setup with other fishes, then you may proceed to put the sand bed and some woods.

For easy maintenance, go for bare tank. Else, you'll be having backache for cleaning the sand bed as dirt and waste are tend to be collected in the sand.

Well explained ~ Pro means pro ...

How big is it now?

Nice. What's the diet like?

as long as u like the fish =)

MGBB or XB and how much you bought it ?

Oh ok la that price. Just put it in white tank till 14" and see whether can cross or not lo.
But the first thing is to see the pearl development. If full pearl after few months in white tank then good lo...

Oh ya, 1 more thing. You are using those plastic boards that used for advertisement inside the tank is it?
My advise is to stick white stickers from outside. Coz these boards will turn brittle after long hours soaking in the water.
And we also dunno whether it will release any chemical into the water that risk your aro's life or not.

Try to ask from the 168 Aquarium in Pandan Indah (opposite of 88 Pets). They have new big plastics for river fishes...

U want to sell or u want to buy ?

Nice fin, nice tail and nice head...Keep doing wtt till 15" inch, potential to be a golden head =)

You may call THEM for quotation and advise ....

Bro aiman04, can try to consult Aquatic Solutions for your queries ... They will provide you professional opinions and suggestions too..

Would like to share with everyone here about the pellet that easily accepted by my Red aro (It has been eating pellets of brand Azoo and Hikari, but not much, each time around 10 sticks only).

Surprisingly when I threw in this pellet by OF - Ocean Free, my Red finished more than 30 sticks off easily and still asking for more. It was biting other tank mates that attempted to eat the pellets as well...lol...

Anyhow, I'm still feeding variety of foods i.e. MP, worms, feeder fishes, bull frogs, will try to convert its staple diet from MP to pellet.

So for those wishing to feed pellet to their aro, no harm trying the starter pack which is selling for RM3.90 only.

Yes, I've tried...
