Thanks, will try to take another video, the fish currently recovering from ammonia poisoning, blackout during weekend and the tank-mate lampam and kelah dead turning the water into smelly soup like.

He is luckily survived after 30% water change for 4 days everyday.

Even some of the scale drop and the eye blur2 on both side.

Now with heater at 30degree and water change every two days to recover.

I'm no sifu but just a beginner as you but curious if you do a full bacterial/Ammonia cycle before you introduce your Arowana?

Hello all sifus, a small sharing from me in starting my Arowana hobby after two weeks of research and hunting for equipment. Finally everything settled down.

I got myself a 5 inch SHB gold with red tail as per owner from Next Aquainnovation in Kepong for RM250.00 as a start up.

Currently i am placing my baby in a 3.5ft white tank with 2x Blue+White LED light (default light system in tank set) for 24 hours. Hopefully my baby dragon will grow into something beautiful in long run. I am planning to move it into a 6 ft tank after 1 year. I am feeding my aro with longkang guppy fry because it refused to eat red worm  sad.gif .

I set up a feeder fish tank for quarantine purpose before i feed them to my baby arowana to reduce risk in disease transmission.

My tank consist of
1 x SHB Arowana (RM250.00)
2 x Pleco (RM10.00)
1 x Gold Lampan (RM5.00)

Allow me to share the cost of all equipments that i bought for those who curious in start up their hobby  biggrin.gif

Arowana tank (Temporary)
3.5ft tank set = RM 950.00 (comes with 2 x led light, cover, cabinet, tank and filter system) Fyi, i removed the default filter because i prefer canister filter.
EJet canister filter 3368= RM 140
Thermometer = RM 3.50
Small air pump = RM 10.00
Air stone = RM 0.80
(Sixty Two Marine Aquarium-reasonable price for all sort of tank size)

Water Heater 200w = Rm 28.00
(Xian Leng Aquarium Shah Alam)

Feeder Fish Tank
2 Ft tank = RM 31.00
Top filter with pump 1200 L/Hour = Rm 28.00
(Cheras Aquarium)
