David R Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Wow!! A couple of hundred perhaps?? Would love to see it. I saw a vid of someone with a similarly large tank keeping a school of neons with a big arowana. The tank was planted and the aro well fed and it mostly ignored the neons.

vindy500 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 6 for 18 bucks at animates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David R Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 I'm sure Richard could do you a better price than that if you were ordering 50+ 8) I'm guessing the biotope would be a sandy bottom with fast flowing water, wood, maybe some plants and river rocks.

alanmin4304 Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 Get a pair and breed them and you should have more than the tank will hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
