It's been almost 3 weeks and my arowana is still unable to swim at the top of the tank. Myarowna is still at the bottom of the tank. Although the tank has not cycled and the ammonia is still spiking, I am checking it daily and frequently doing water changes. Today the ammonia was very high so I...

It been 3 weeks since my baby arowana (Hercules) took ill. He is still hanging in there. From all I read it seems as if he is suffering from swim bladder disease. He cannot move from the tank bottom. He moves back and forth most times, sometimes leaning to the side. But just when I think he is a...

Thanks for all the help. It's been 9 days now and Hercules is still hanging in there. I now know I really was not experienced enough to own an arow. However, we've hung in there and I an hooked. I know he's still not out of the woods but today was a good day. He now is extending both his fins...

Help!!!!! Today Hercules is once again on his side, when he swims he is leaning over to the side. My ammonia is 0.5- 1 , the PH is 6.4 and I don't know what else to do or what might be causing this.

Thanks to Sorrell for the guidance. I have o ammonia and the ph & nitrates are fine, the arowana is in its own tank. This is one hardy little fish. I have been keeping watch over this little guy for the past 4 days. He was laying on his side on barely moving, just lifting his head ever so...

my tank is 20 gallons. There are other older fish (7) but they are separate from the arowana. This is what the pet store suggested to do while I prepare a separate tank for the new fish. He advised the water needed to settle before I intor'd my arowana into the tank. My water levels are ph 6.6...
