We got a silver at the weekend, Its only young only around 3 inches long. My question is do silvers have markings and a greenish colour when young? It has an orange and black spot just behind its gill. Its also chunkier in depth than silvers iv seen.

I tried to take a picture but due to dodgy camera i couldnt get one in focus enough.
 
yeah sounds like a silver they are quite colourful when they are that small
hope you got a big old tank for that little monster :good:
 
I agree with Cane about it been a silver and about having a big tank for the 20"+ monster
 
yeah, my silver has red fins (still young, but about 8in) , was scared to death that it was Septicemia but judging my his massive appitite and the fact hes had it for 3 months now, there are no problems.
 
I use to have a really really nice 8 inch silver arrowana that still had a really nice black and orange spot behind his gill but the next morning i found him on the floor :(
they like to escape so make sure you cover your tank good
 
our 22" green aro jumped out yesterday morning :crazy:
luckily it happened when we were there
fish look so much bigger when they are out of water
