Nope..we dont sell centipede..even if we wanted to, there is not more supply to malaysia..coz all the centipede were from indon and now indon banned exporting of centipede..

From my point of view, aro cant take frequently is coz the exoskeleton is quite hard to be digested..while the poison wouldn't do bad to the aro..i used to feed my red like 3 daily..no improvement in colour after 3months...only wallet suffered..

And the myth of those ppl saying centipede boosting the colouration of red, i believe wasnt true..the fact that profit from selling centipede is much more than selling any other arowanas live food..this is what i believe..coz centipede doesnt not have the nutrients of what a prawns have..

ooo. bro i wanna ask, is it economically better to feed my aro with aro pellets or stick with live feed?

I believe yes if ur aro do take pellet..
Coz pellet can be stored, contain all the nutrients a fish needed, get something mid range is good enug, hikari mid range is good enug..if ur budget allows, go for tetraarowana pellet or hikari food stick..
So when u buy one can or tub of pellet..u can store em, u save petrol, u save time, no hassle to travel to lfs to buy live food, no need extra space or tank to keep live food, no live food gonna stuck inside filter or water pump or maybe a cricket escape the tank and there u go for the night trying to find where is that noisy *******..worse case, centipede escaped..not to forget live food got death rate..not all will survive..if u brought too much live food, u need to feed em to keep em alive especially when ur aro goes starving mode, live food will be left there..

But the cons for pellet or food stick is, need to train em to take..anyone with an aro trained to take pellet or food stick, dont ever switch to live food..surely will regret after some time..

thanks bro. something mid range coz how much bro?

Personally, by going to the LFS, it's another way of keeping the hobby alive, getting social while exchanging ideas etc.. Long time ago there was no such thing as Internet. Being so called fish keeping enthusiast, me and my buddies used to walk miles away to LFS just to look at fishes. Anyway didn't know aro's will go on starving mode, how long does the starving lasts?

i used to feed my aro cricket as my aro refuse take MP and superworms. but lately the aro do not seems like hungry and eating. and i notice alot of undigested thing on my tank bottom. on and off my aro vomit some kind of white thing come out. i suspect the digestion got problem. any bro encounter this before and any solution?

just 3 days and water so fast green colour...if this rate imma need to wc twice per week -.-

LOL thanks for the replies about crickets.

Haha I am a bit phobia to those creepy crawlies, that's why I am asking whether there are the dead crickets for sale, lol.


Oh yup, does anyone knows of any LFS around Klang area?

Depends on individual aro..mine tried before one month..pigpig aro tried before 3months

Bro..i would suggest u to try heater n salt..
Or..better to ask sam..hes the pro is water chemistry n fish illness


U turn on ur lights 24/7??

Haha i know many ppl got entomophobia. Me too i was scared of insects and crawly things before. But not after playing around with them. Now i can hold live crickets, superworms and home lizards bare-handedly

Fear is to overcome bro, not an excuse. Or so i told my wife

12h on 2 4feet light.another 12h just small light..i think the 4 feet light is to hot?

bro my aro eyes i think got scratch by the aquarium or something now a bit cloudy. how to fix it ya?

Means 24hours a day..sure algae bloom..reduce lighting durations to maximum 12hours a day..unless ure doing wtt..

If after u reduce the durations to 12hours a day for a week of twice water change, the green water still there then u gotta check ur filter..if u lazy wanna alter filter and stuff, get a uv..problem solves..

Any pics?

If scratch will eventually heal up..

If grow fungus, will need medications

cant take the pics bro. using camera phone only. btw my aro fin like luka abit. dunno what happen. any advice?[attachmentid=3169636][attachmentid=3169638]

using canister filter

Arrrrrrgh.
Is frigging hard to find Hikari food sticks for arowana.
Anyone knows which LFS got sell this?

I saw a few xbbbmg at a new LFS at Putra Heights selling fr a very good price! The owner kept it together in a huge 8 footer with a few indo super reds. Anyone interested to drop by please PM me, would like to go there kepoh again.

I used to buy in bulk from official Hikari distributor in JB. Can get special price. Google up Hikari Malaysia u can easily get their phone number & address in JB. Good luck.

Would really like to go if i live around Klang Valley. Hows their pricing like, for an xbbbmg? Choosing from a comm batch can be beneficial, as u can see & compare which is superior, good or bad..
