The arowana can be fed 2-3 days after entering the tank, but it needs to be fed less at this time, because the arowana will have a lot of uncomfortable reactions in the new environment, if it is fed too much at one time, it is easy to cause gastrointestinal diseases. For the first feeding, it is better to feed 1-2 small fish of about 2 centimeters, and then gradually increase the amount of feeding after they adapt. When you put the arowana into the tank, you should pass the water first. After you put it in, you should pay attention not to turn on the light. If you don't eat a few days ago, you can stop feeding first.

1. how long can the arowana be fed

into the tank? You can try to feed the arowana 2-3 days after it enters the tank. But the first feeding needs to be less, because the arowana will be uncomfortable in the new environment, if too much food is fed at one time, the arowana is easy to eat too much, and it is also easy to cause gastrointestinal diseases. Therefore, when feeding arowana for the first time, it is better to feed 1-2 small fish of about 2 centimeters, or some red worms or shrimp, but also pay attention to the amount of feeding can not be too much. After the arowana gradually adapts to the new environment, the feeding amount is gradually increased.

2. It is normal for arowana not to open their mouths when they enter the

tank, because they are not adapted to the new environment and will have tension and fear. So breeders don't need to worry, wait 2-3 days before feeding, and they will open their mouths. If the arowana has been in the tank for several days, but does not open their mouths to eat, then it is necessary to observe whether they are uncomfortable, some arowana are timid and slow to adapt. At this time, the breeder can feed them some high-protein food, the amount should be small, and if they do not eat, the breeder needs to fish out to avoid polluting the water quality. If you do not open your mouth to eat for more than a week, the breeder should check whether there is any problem with the water temperature and quality, or observe whether the body of the arowana is healthy.
