I tried a different view, from the top, this was very difficult, it was the best i could do.

I guess anything is possible, i ordered it in a trio as gold or yellow calvus. the other photos i put up with the dark gold/brown color i also ordered in a trio as alt. comp. and they are different looking, but u could be right, they look very similar anyways!

Yea that was extremely difficult. I had to take the canapy off and lights and then i took pics in the dark, so i had to guess where he was swimming. It was worth it though, out of 100 photos i got about 6 good ones.thumbs2:

So 75 gallons is sufficient for an arrowana.

Not for the rest of its life. He is only about 9" right now. In a couple months when he is eating better he will go to a 220 gal. with some frontosas.thumbs2:

bigger the better, they will reach at least 22-26" in a tank.

They say a 6'x2' footprint is bare minimum for any type of aro.

^^ Agreed. Aros are beautiful fish, but they can't last in a tank that small.
