Spotted gar and silver Arowana.

geezus who bloody said they were going into the 280 with everything else?? stop attacking me with your' imo you need to rethink your stocking'

im not retarded surprisingly.

i was hoping to get atleast one of each for the 280 (and they would be the only things in there) untill i get my custom made which will be 10 by 3.

thankyou all very much i foind little to no help at all from you people.

did you think to ask a question befor attacking me with your i know about fish crap.
Then how about posting more information before getting all butthurt? Your first post was very vague.

Well you said nothing about plans for a new tank and you have a tank list in your sig. Its kind of the logical progression of thought... Thats why I took my tank list out of my sig so I don't have to worry about that anymore.

Wow... are you really THAT upset that people care about the fish? Mad enough to forget how to capitalize even... sheesh!

No one that I saw attacked you. They asked for more info because you posted very little and the only thing people had to go on was your signature. Get over yourself and stop asking questions if you're only asking to hear what you want to hear.
 
And what would happen to the five fish already in your tank? Surely not into the 55 with them?

When will you be getting this custom tank? If it's soon, why not just wait for the big tank rather than rehouse five fish for two new ones who may not even get along with each other in such close quarters? Silver Arowana grow fast, you'll be surprised at how soon your 280 gallons become obsolete.

Doesn't seem like a good investment, considering the large tank you'll need to house all your other fish while your Arowana is in the 280.

We need more information, but thanks for flying off the handle like that. Much appreciated by people trying to help you.
 
ok. yes people may have asked about what tank but preceeded to attack that the tank cannot hold all those fish. the original question was NOT about where could i put them becasue i already have those plans and i didnt need your advice.
my oscars eels and pleco are going to friendthankyou very much who is starting his own fish obsession.

the arowana will do fine in the 280 for atleast 6 months considering it is only 15cm at the moment. im still undecided on the gar fish.
i will be getting my 10 by 2 or 3 in october ive been speaking to people about getting it made from a few of my aquariums.

ps: if someone was trying to help they'd tell me something about the compatibility with the fish not abuse my tank situation when there was nothing wrong with it.
 
Couldnt tell you how many to get if you didnt mention what tank theyre going in etc.
 
k thanks yeah. 5 by 3 for the first 6 months. then a 10 or minimum 8 by 3 custom.

to be honost, i just wanted to share my excitment with everyone that i could get thefish i have been looking for these guys for ages !!!
 
Like said before, Gar have a tenancy to attack shiny fish. Getting one of each isnt a safe bet, especially for the cost of a possible dead fish.


I didnt see anyone attack the tank not being able to hold the fish. Just concerns with the fish and wanting to give you good advice.
 
maybe i will just get my arowana then...
leave some other guys till later and find some safer mates for him/her.


always wanted a gar but my friend is prob getting one so i might get one for his tank aswell an leave him there.
ah dreams shattered but its ok,i wanted the arowana first
