its the same fish breed that my in law have..

haha, do i? ppl saz that often.. but i am still myself.. no one special.. wakakkaa

i KNow what u mean steve.. that is why a lot of ppl fail aro comm and the aro end up injured (then they sell it off)... coz they straight away jump into big tank... and YES IT DOES WASTE A LOT OF MONEY AND SPACE IN HOUSE.. but then if u wan it to be a success.. YOU HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE brother.. nothing in this world is easy.. for every single effort or price u pay extra.. the more results u will get in return..

doing a comm tank is very very different compare to a conventional way of keeping 1 aro in 1 tank.. that i 100% agree with jumping into big tank straight away to avoid money wasting.. but for comm if u do that.. trust me.. u will end up wasting even more money in the end.. waste money on aro.. and waste money on tank... if u sit down and think properly what i said u will understand..

the keypoint for aro comm tank is.. to prevent the aro from fighting and injured itself..

so no matter how u do it also u must work around the keypoint itself.. or else u are asking for more trouble.. this is what i called for unseen variable or trouble..

advice : plan ur approach properly first before u jump in.. and ask other experience comm owner.. they will verify what i have just said.. in this world nothing is easy.. the question is.. how u enjoy ur result of your hardwork?

guys.. what is the venue to meet up and what time tomorrow?

nice meeting up with all of you.. btw we should do this more often..

go jalan pasar alive aquarium shop.. go for indo red.. rm 300..
there is one indo red very chun.. big fan tail almost touching with dorsal fin and shine up to 5th level.. and long nice barbel.. color also chun.. aro can be train to eat pellet but aro is recommended to switch food alternately every month..

agreed.. but if cheaka is low on budget.. can make do with the tank for now and change later.. regardless of whatever ppl tell u.. the most important fact is whether u like it or not... some ppl like red arowana.. some ppl like golden arowana.. even some like green arowana.. so it really depends..

but when u buy make sure the eye is not drop, big fan tail withtout any white frame coz that will indicating the tail or fin is rotting.. and try to buy those who are already 4-5 inch.. avoid tiny ones.. some ppl like long barbel

tips for cheaka: for first timer.. make sure ur tank have cover.. aro likes to jump..
dont overfeed and dont leave the food inside the tank.. coz it till become toxic and give problem later on.. the rest you can read up online.. you might also wan to consider placing or sticking one layer of black oyama paper on the bottom to prevent drop eye before u actually fill up the tank with aro and put aro inside..

same here, coz the cheapest gold also indo gold which cost rm 300 plus.. unless the owner owe ppl money and need to release it asap.. then tat will make sense..

lol.. i also feed once each time and i use hand wrap with plastic to catch. then trap the kodok at one corner.. use my finger to "tiak" the kodok until pengsan.. then only feed.. haha
