I’m wondering as I have a 4ft by 5ft tank about 40cm deep/tall and was wondering if I could house one for life or weather I would have to upgrade in the future?
thx, fin

Thinking of getting an Arowana, jardini or Asian

Asian Aros can get quite deep bodied when older, fin to fin 30 odd cm. Not quite sure your tank is deep enough. Also, does it have a lid?
Yes it does have a lid, so the tank would have to be a bit deeper for the Arowana as it matures to adulthood?
Welcome aboard
That size aquarium would be a growout for a small arowana of any species. Upgrade will be needed.
What tank size would you recommend for a full grown arrow, I quite enjoy to squarish look to the tank. Would a 6ft by 6ft be sufficient?
I keep my golden crossback Asian in a 96x32x32, 420 gallon (soon to be upgraded), but some of my friends keep there Asians in 96x24x24, 240 gallon and there perfectly happy and healthy, in my humble opinion a 96x24x24, 240 gallon is the minimum for a golden Asian, a super red would require a larger home as they get bigger then golden aro's in general, not all of the time, but most of the time, I've never had a jardini so can't comment on them, I've only ever had Asians personally.
