Stone,
U can compare Afad's to the picture/ videos links.

But, since u said it is nami green, the scales should have some special pattern when its grown up right?

errr....
nami... oh nami.,.....

stone... jom g jalan pasar....

Stone,
Swim bottom is OK. If always on the top(not swimming) then worry swim bladder problem.When u bring ur JAR back, use the filter power head to create strong undercurrent.

apa barang teh tarik..... hahahaha

Wat i know is they use a lot of salt in the aro tank..

ILLNESSES

Basically, the Arowana is a very hardy fish; even forthe first timers. However, due to unsuitable water conditions, poor diet,high nitrate levels, etc., illnesses like bulging eye, cloudy eye, gillcurling, external parasites, fin rot, dropsy and internal bleeding mayoccur. Watch out for the last two symptoms as they are likely to be fatal.In all cases, raise the water temperature to 34 degree celcius and add0.03% salt to the water (ie 300g of salt for 100litres of water). Dependingon respective cases, add a wide spectrum medicine with anti-bacterial oranti-parasitic compounds. Medicines like tetracycline, acfriflavine mayalso help. One point to note; do not be too concerned over fin rot causedfighting. Even in cases where extensive damage to the whole tail has beendone, the recovery period is only a matter of weeks.

*Please note that"drop" eyes is not a disease.

madstone and aljebat, if you want to go to jalan pasar this weekend we can go there together. then we can go to XL at shah alam. 

Q : Bulging eye in Silver Arowana, please help! I have an Arowana from South America in a 150 gallon tank with two canister filters and four Bio-wheels. The water temp. is at 80 degrees, pH is at 6.8. The water is at ideal readings for ammonia, nitrate, nitrite&  however, despite the perfect conditions, the fish has developed this bulging eye condition. Could it be Exphothalmos? I understand that this condition is fairly common among Arowana. Any suggestions for treatment & besides praying?

A:The condition with respect to your Arowana's bulging eyes is a very common complaint by hobbyists. There are basically two reasons for this:
1. The Arowana in the wild is a surface-feeder. It swims almost at the surface of the water constantly looking upwards for insects to capture and feed on. When you put it into an aquarium tank this condition that it is used to is changed entirely. Instead of looking upwards it is now having to see sideways and even downwards. As such its eye muscles no longer required to hold its eyeballs for upward vision becomes lazy and relaxed causing eyeballs to bulge and droop.
2. Hobbyists tend to overfeed their fish causing fatty tissues to accumulate behind the eyeballs which subsequently cause the bulging and the drooping.

Stone, thanx for the info for drop eye.
Btw, don't forget to post the pic of ur new JAR when you bring it home.
