*The Aquarium of the Arowana fish must be properly covered because this species of fish can jump out of its aquarium if it is not well covered. Also provide driftwood or plant thickets for the fish so that it can feel at home and hide when it wants to
*The Water in the aquarium should be about 25° C, clean and soft and you can add peat filtration into it to help the arowana fish and cleanup the water.
*The Arowana fish loves to eat live food. Feeds such as baby Livebearers, Brine shrimp, Goldfishes and night crawlers are good live feeds for an arowana.
I know a lot of people that give their arowana fishes non live feeds , but I do not know how good it is for the general health of the fish, so I won’t advice that.

M$Also Never feed them with those fish food which sink down to bottom. Their eyes are build to stare at surface of water so if they start eating food from bottom they will get this terrible problem called "drop eye" So make sure put food which stay on surface. Also they live lot of space to swimming so long tanks are better and no need plants or other things.

M$They grow to quite a large size, depending on which type you select, but you can be sure that a healthy Arowana will grow to at least 24-30 inches in length. This requires that you provide a tank that gives the fish ample room to move, so a young Arowana would need at least a tank of 36 inches/ 90 cm and as they get older, 48 inches/ 120 cm. When an Arowana exceeds 15 inches/ 40 cm it will require a much larger tank.
The optimum temperature for most types of Arowana is 75 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit (24-30 C) and the water should be kept at a PH balance of around 7. Also bear in mind that they may jump so the tank should be well covered.
Further care required, as the Arowana is a carnivore and its toilet habits can quickly pollute a tank, is that you will need to be carrying out a 25% to 33% water change every week, even more advisable would be 20% twice a week.
Finally an Arowana can live for up to 20 years, so be prepared to caring for this most unusual fish for some time to come.
