Instructions
Feed floating pellets formulated for arowana. They are available at pet stores and provide a complete diet. Follow the instructions from the manufacturer.
Quarantine feeder fish for at least 24 hours before adding them to an arowana's tank to make sure they are healthy. Live fish can carry diseases that can be transmitted to the arowana.
Feed insects by scattering them on the surface of the water. Arowana tend to feed at the surface, so floating insects are easy for them to pick up.
Feed pieces of shrimp or fish by hand, or by using tweezers or tongs. Arowanas do not have dangerous teeth, so it is safe to put your hand in the tank.
