Default My 3 years arowana..

http://youtu.be/Sc4g1RBCHBg

Hi all seniors..

After 3 years, decided to post my aro for comment.. Posted once 3 years
ago by my shifu.. Good or bad welcome.. no prob..

I have 3 questions basically..

1) Why is my tin foil barb dying once every few months to 1 year ?
Now just bought 3 Geromi and 1 Tiger, hoping it will last..
I follow all routines, change water every month 20 - 30 %..
Sucker also always dying, no visible injuries..

2) There is no gold head.. So it means it will never have ?

3) I feed only worms 15 - 30 pcs a day, just heard from the fish people
it is too much to feed.. Should i reduce to 15 a day ? Also good
to mix with prawns ? As this is in office my room, hard to feed
prawn sometimes, cutting and smelly.

Advance thanks to all brothers who take time to reply and advise me..

nice and fat XB... for a 3yr old there is no chance to have gold head.. furthermore gh is a genes not something that you can do make it appear.

next time, when you get a new juv xb, try put into whiite fiber glass tank for at least 6month to 9month.. it will help to devolpe some gold lines if the fish has the genes. if you want gold head.. then go get one already have gold head and put into white tank for 6month to further enhance the gold and shine..
