I recently went on a gold fish shopping journey for my niece, got referred from one shop to another and bumped into this place called Dragon king Aquarium in Northern Scarborough.
Found out it's run and owned by a long lost friend of mine I haven't seen for almost 15-20 years.
If you guys are into Arowanas and other types of fresh water fish, you should swing by and take a peek at his place.
Quick edit video
Anyone else here are into these exotic fish?

my buddy used to own one, it got too big for the tank though, swimming in circles from nose to tail....eventually jumped out of the water one night and died.....he told me they grow to be 6 feet long, and in amazon jump up and snatch monkey's out of trees.

That's what my buddy said, a cover for your tank is indeed needed.
Snatching monkeys, that's nuts dude. I've only seen them eat mouse on YouTube and pieces of steak in person.

My buddy has been raising them for six years now, they know him as his master and when he places his hand in the tank ... They all want to be pet and touched by him.
My friends uncle placed his whole head and his Arowana just circled around him.
Amazing video of the rabbit feeding.

That's the exact same thing my friend could do... Was pet his fish, and it would be so calm and let him do so... As for the monkey thing... He said he did research on it, and that's what they do in the wild... But I dunno how true his words are... He kinda bends the truth sometimes

I did some homework also, ppl were talking about some doc filmed by the discovery channel. Still looking for it
The Arowana will not attack anything unless he knows the pray can be swallowed in one shot.
