My aro also sometimes like to remain stagnant like yours after shifted to a new and bigger home. It is eating well and no sickness. I just let it be. After a while, it will settled down by itself.

be careful of getting it addicted to only crickets...have seen other hobbyist share painful experience of bloated aro dead with crickets...

my humble suggestion is to try market prawn cut to size and sharp parts of shell removed. or even better, pellets.

dunk into water with a splashing motion to induce its instinct to bite

Yea, of all "death by overfeeding" reports shared by fellow hobbyists, it's often SW, cricket, then disease by feeder goldfish, in that order of aggravity IMHO.

Hikari arowana/carnivore Pellets should b a reliable brand, and amazingly I e ever heard of good natural color enhancement if u can get the aro to main on Tetrabits~

And i forgot to mention, very beautiful RTG with excellent form! Do keep us updated when able, thanks for sharing : )
