The frequency of feeding the silver arowana depends on its age and food intake. Fish at different ages have different needs for food. Like young fish, fish grow faster and consume more energy every day. At this stage, the fish are easily hungry and should be fed with less food and more meals. Feeding 3 to 4 times a day, the amount of feeding each time should not be too much. When the fish grow to 30 centimeters, you can reduce the number of feeding, feeding twice a day. Adult fish digest food more slowly, so the demand for food is not large. At this time, you can extend the feeding interval, it is recommended to feed once every two days, and each feeding should make it full.
