You should get that fish in a tank more like 75+g. Atleast get a 55 with good filtration! [Good luck with your fish]

My fish isnt that big now i do relize that arowanas do get big but will it hurt the fish?? i plan on selling my fish once it gets to big


i am only 14 yrs old and i cant just go and buy a big tank like that i had to get a job to afford the 30g for my room i also dont have the room for a 55g+ ( i cant wait till i get my own place and a job)

But if i do get some money or pursuade my mother what filteration do i need are underground filters neccesary? i have one with a power head attached to it nowand a bio wheel filter in my 30gal would that be suitable for a 55gal? cuz if its ok i may just buy the tank no need for new filtration i may have a more powerfull reason for my mom to say yes

I also would hope that you would buy something to keep not sell when it gets to big just a suggestion.

get a 50g kit and get the emporor 330 alone or get an emporor 100 with the supplied filter i think that should do it!
