QUOTE(akhmedisonline @ Mar 15 2015, 12:17 PM) Maybe, but I have only 1 30cm endli in 4 feet tank, ur tank is only 6 feet but have gar, toman and arowana. especially the toman. I thought they are very predatory. Mine is channa pleuro... They get along well with arowana... Not like toman harimau(toman malaysia), its the fiercest of them all... Toman bunga is also a good candidate to comm with arowana and tigers... The most important fact in comm is size... All of them must be about the same size...how many times you feed them per day? Like mine, the dominant one ( leader) is my gold arowana, the commanders( less dominant, but still teritorial) are my tigers and channa... The workers ( not dominant) are my gars, bichirs and others, they dont give a damn bout the others... So, u only have to have one dominant.. I feed once in two days... Fish does not need to eat many times like us... We need energy to fight gravity... Water gravity is less, so fish need less energy... Btw, if u feed too often, water quality will not be good... |

QUOTE(akhmedisonline @ Mar 15 2015, 01:49 PM) hi, how many times you feed them per day? Plus, bichirs, gars can starve for few months, arowana amd tigers can starve for 1 month... So u can imagine how much energy they consume... Very little..lol.  Must be a nice tank, because have top and bottom swimmer.. |

QUOTE(aimank_88 @ Mar 16 2015, 05:30 PM) About the same price, i bought at 7-8 inches i think, for RM150.. Get a new auranti la, hihi. Aaaaaa, dont poison me.... Auranti is one of the most beautiful channa, besides pleuro... But my aquarium can only maintain temp at 29-30... If using fan, can only go down to 28... Aquarium too big for fan... Have to use chiller but my electricity bill will be sky high... Huhu... |
