    To introduce a new arowana fish into a tank, float the bag in the tank for 30 minutes to equalize temperature before mixing tank water into the bag for 15 minutes and releasing. Do not feed the new fish for 1-2 days and observe its gill movements for signs of stress. Maintain water quality by changing 30% of the water twice a week, removing waste daily, and feeding dragonfish twice a day for smaller sizes and once a day for larger sizes, removing uneaten food after 5 minutes. Add salt at a rate of 100g per 100 liters of water for first aid treatments of dropsy, internal bleeding, or abdominal fluid issues, and use metronidazole to treat intestinal parasites

    Proper method for equalizing temperature and pH.

    Float the bag of fish in the tank for 30 min to equalize temperature Open up, mix some of the tank water into the bag for 15 min before releasing (2 steps). observe the gill movements if stressed, change 30% with aged water introducing new arowana into a tank with other dragonfish (minimum of 8-9 dragonfish) Dont feed the new fish for the next 1-2 days

    Maintaining good water quality.


    Water change about 2 times a week at 30% each change (use only aged tap water). Remove the fish waste daily with a fine net. Feeding Quantity (2 times a day at 75% full for dragonfish of 6 inches to 1 feet. For bigger fishes, feed once a day)remove uneaten food after 5 mins. Diet (frozen market prawn and small fishes eg ikan billis/guppies) No live foods for fear of parasites . Smelling the water. PH 6-7

    Adding salt (100 litres of water =100 g)

    First aid = salt (100 litre = 300 grams) DROPSY (temperature to 32, add salt & tetracycline) INTERNAL bleeding (temperature to 32, add salt & tetracycline) ABDOMINAL FLUID . (extraction & salt) INTESTINAL PARASITES (Add 1g of Metronidazole (white powder) for every 100 litres of water)
