Silver arowana should not feed live loach. On the one hand, loach is more tenacious than ordinary fish; On the other hand, if loach is thrown directly into the fish tank, it will sink to the bottom, while silver arowana does not eat the food that sinks to the bottom. If the loach fed directly is not dead, it will easily lead to stomach injury of Arowana, and Arowana will easily die in the long run.

So if you must feed the silver arowana loach, you must kill the loach first, cut it into pieces and feed it to them. In addition, loach sinks to the bottom, and the silver arowana will easily cause the silver arowana to lose its eyes in the long run besides not eating the food that sinks to the bottom.

Fish and shrimp are highly nutritious foods, so they are very suitable for feeding silver arowana. If it is a silver arowana below 12 cm, you can feed more bread worms. In this period, the silver arowana will grow very fast and metabolize very quickly, so it has higher requirements for nutrition. When the silver arowana is more than 12 cm, it can be fed to some fish and shrimp, but when feeding shrimp, it is best to remove the head and pinch the tail of the shrimp, because the shrimp shell is hard and it is easy to prick the internal organs of the silver arowana. When the silver arowana is more than 15 cm, the silver arowana at this time is basically an adult, and can be fed some insect food.
