Yea got this product on Amazon India but how do I use this product and is it compulsory to install this for an aro

When you buy the test kit, it will come with everything you need, including directions and how to evaluate your water test results. Follow the directions EXACTLY as directed and you should be fine.

IMO, if you care about keeping fish, and, want to reduce the guess work out of the most important factor in the tank (water quality), then being able to test your water parameters for any tank is a must have. If you want to just guess it, then you don't need to spend the $20 bucks and few minutes to learn. That's your call ;-)

Yea I'll get the kit but I'm waiting for him to get well and then I'm gonna get a big space and this this kit for him. For now as said I'll keep changing 25% of water and keep adding salt for a week. No need for any meds right ?

This fish would be better off dead.
Keeping an animal of that size in that tank is just plain cruel.There is no excuse for this situation.
Don't by a living creature without learning about its needs.
Sorry but that fish is just plain pitiful.

I agree with stanzzzz7, keeping a fish of that size, in such a tiny tank, is akin to keeping a Great Dane in a tiny bathroom 24/7, and if you only change the water occasionally, it would be like leaving the dog krapp build up in the same time span before cleaning it up.

Yea I'm looking forward for the recovery once he is stable im gonna get the new tank almost 6ft long 2ft wide and 3ft height.
I want my aro to recover his health I'm changing 25% of the water and adding salt to it with the heater set at 28°c.

Any recommendations for the size.

3ft wide !! Can't I make it 2.5ft according to place coz I can't make it more wide. Height can go upto 3 ft as well or 2.5ft. but wide can it be fine 2.5ft.

Height is not very important for an arrow, width is very important.
