Photo: The first day that we got her (02/02/2002)
We feed our arowana with pellet food and grill shrimp everyday and Crickets every sunday.
I got the following imformation from www.singnet.com
Crickets - are good for your Arowana , it will enhance its color and simulate growth . Most Arowana love crickets , so u can feed it with lots of cricket . But one bad point is that the Arowana might reject other food .
-Grasshoppers - some Arowana would eat grasshoppers but I am not sure if it does any good to the Arowana . Feeding of grasshoppers will most likely to dirty the water because of the leftover wings and legs .
-Shrimp - shrimp is good for your Arowana as it contains very good protein , simulate growth and enhance its color ( red ) . When feeding the shrimp to a young Arowana , you need to remove the head and tail as it might hurt its small stomach . You can feed the whole shrimp as the Arowana gets bigger .

Beefheart - feeding beefheart to the Arowana will ensure that it grow faster and bigger . Fats content must be removed or it will dirty and make the water oily . You can also feed it with chickenheart which is lower in fats content .
Mealworms - you can feed the Arowana with mealworms or even centipede . Mealworms are cheap and you can get it easily from pet shop .
-Pellets - some Arowana will eat pellets but you need to train it . Pellets contain lots of vitamins and nutritious ingredients which will make sure that the Arowana have a balanced diet . Some pellets contained color-enhancing ingredients , it will enhance gold and red color
-Frogs - are the favourite food for Arowana . My Arowana can eat up to 10 frogs in one day .

WE AOIVD BULGING EYE BY PUT BIG RED BALL FLOATS IN OUR TANK
Bulging eye prevents the Arowana from looking up since the upper part of the eyeball protrudes . It is caused by feeding the Arowana too much fatty food such as beefheart or prawns and even its own reflection at the bottom of the tank . There are a few possible causes for this symptom and if it worsen , the Arowana might become blind ( Eyes rot or drop off ^_^: ) . Sometimes , bulging eyes might occured only one side of the eyes but the Arowana is still able to swim and eat . Since there is no cure for bulging eyes , prevention is better than cure .

WE GOT THIS SIAMESE TIGER FISH BECAUSE. THE HUANG-JUI BOOK ( A combination of Arowana and Siamese Tiger fish. Arowana features the cruising dragon in the cloud with Siamese Tiger fish resembles the guardian of the earth. Note that Arowana is a water surface dwelling fish and the Siamese Tiger likes to stay at bottom. This denotes full manipulation of situation within fingertips, rapid career advancement and great business improvement )
Siamese Tiger fish(Datnioides Microlepis). This guy he does not like swiming , he hide himself at filter tube and in the cave all the time . But when he is hungry , he will stare down at his foods 3-4 times before eat them. I think he looks like a real tiger.
