Arowana is a freshwater fish because it lives in rivers and lakes in tropical areas and is a very old freshwater fish. They usually live in the upper layer of water, and mainly feed on small fish, shrimp and shellfish. They can't live in water with high salt concentration, because high concentration will have a great impact on their normal life, so it is best for breeders not to put more salt in the water where they live.
2. How to raise Arowana1. Water temperature: Arowana still has high requirements for water temperature. When raising artificially, it is necessary to use a heating rod to keep the water temperature at 24-28 ℃. Usually pay attention to the temperature difference between new water and old water not exceeding 1 ℃.
2. Water quality: Silver arowana likes clean and refreshing water quality, but the weak acidity of water quality will make them live more comfortably. The breeder can keep the PH value between 6.5 and 7.5, and the nitrite content in the water should be 0. Only in this way can they build good nitrifying bacteria and make the water quality more stable.
3. Feeding: Silver Arowana feeds different foods at different stages. Generally, silver Arowana within 20 cm should be fed with live bait, because within 20 cm is the key stage of their growth and development, and feeding live bait can make them grow better. After 20 cm, breeders can feed them with some synthetic feed to ensure their balanced nutrition.
4. Fish tank: Silver arowana is large, and breeders need to prepare a large fish tank for them, so as to ensure sufficient living space for them.
