Giving it a variety of food would be good, but live feeders may run the risk of disease and bioload is high .. it's also important to invest in a proper setup and get the water parameters right

if this person does not do his research through google or this forums search functions.
then he wont know what MP stands for

so maybe dont use jargon lol

seriously, there are many articles on line about arowana, i think forums are really for more advanced questions.
experiences and more in depth analysis of problems , issues and particular experiences and experiments in the hobby.

as for water parameters, temperature, diet and tank sizes, i think google is your frienbd

but welcome!!!

I feed mine with market prawn only...last time use to feed torsat, mw and some bullfrogs occassionally but now just only MP.

TS shld also note that keeping a red or xb requires different tank size and background of tank. Also if TS is new he best read up on cycling of tank to prevent any disaster from happening.

Cheers and regards
