Do not place the aquarium near the wall (wall) let alone stick. Because if Arowana see insects such as cockroaches or lizards on the wall, he will jump and butting wall aquarium glass, so it can be wound. Calculate large aquarium with a huge fish, so the fish can move freely and fairly rolled in the room. Give adequate lighting. To control the water temperature (27-30 degrees Celsius), the thermometer should be placed in the aquarium walls and ends dipped into the water. Measure pH at least once a week.
Background / Background: The Aquarium is recommended to use a background image / sticker / paint. Color according to taste. However most hobbies using appropriate background color arowana species are maintained, for example:
* Super Red = black background
* Golden Cross Back = black background
* Red Tail Golden = Background blue / white
* Bandjar Red = Background blue / white
* Silver = Background black / blue

With the filter, dirt can be removed, while the dirt that settles in the bottom of the aquarium aspirated with a hose. Should do it slowly so the fish are not great shakes due to water stress. Every three months and the total drained glass aquarium should be free from moss, and sabuni aquarium wall and when it is, dry it in the sun, so that mold and germs die.
New water in the aquarium should be deposited first 24 hours before the fish is put back into the aquarium. Oxygen content in the water must be maintained by installing aerators that also functions as a pump and filter impurities.

Take another fish, doing a similar way, if not to show anger, meaning fit, slowly removed the glass partition. Observe carefully. When they are not chasing each other. Means they can live in peace.
Woof
Each week, an additional 2-3 arowana fed lizards are not too big, and every two weeks was given three tail centipede. Centipedes or millipedes include arowana favorite foods, so be careful to give it. If every day were centipedes, the arowana will be reluctant to take crickets or frogs once. He will only eat centipedes.

Disease
The cause is divided into two, namely nonparasiter and parasitic organisms. Parasitic organisms that originated in viruses, bacteria, fungi, worms or protozoa. Being the nonparasiter as environmental factors, diet and heredity. But in fact, both types of disease-causing attacks that are difficult to distinguish.
There are distinctive features that teserang arowana fish disease, either as a result of parasitic and nonpasrasiter, which looks passive and weak, tend to swim on the surface of the water, decreased appetite, difficulty breathing, the body of the fish is not slippery, because the mucous membrane is reduced, so that the fish easily arrested. Another sign, on the chest and bleeding from damaged scales, dorsal fin cracked.
Environmental factors that cause fish illness, among others, the pH of the water. Fluctuations in water pH is influenced by many things, such as the presence of CO2 in water. Then change the water temperature suddenly also greatly affect the health of fish. In addition to the reduced amount of oxygen in the water and the presence of toxic gases
such as CO2, ammonia and water pollution will also damage the health of fish. Then the food factor, as already mentioned above earlier, fresh fish will feed risky, because fish can carry disease. Then heredity is also a big problem on arowana, such scales are not good, your back is not straight or albino and conjoined twins.
Parasitic organisms can cause symptoms of infection fish lice, gill rot, white spot, smallpox and tuberculosis, infected with fungus Saprolegnia and Achlya, bacteria destroyer fins and itch.
When we saw how beautiful and graceful arowana fish in an aquarium, especially when he pursues his prey, we would be awed and amazed. But for that, arowana also requires careful maintenance and care. Because many types of diseases that are ready'' to pounce ".
