Default Small fish that breed fast for aro pond.

I'd like to have some smal fish swimming in my Arowana pond
last time i released tiger barbs and some mollies, but most of then have been eaten though the mollies have bred, and earlier today i found baby tiger barbs in my pond

was hoping my arowanas will get tired of live fish and eat mp and sw diet


any fish which breeds really fast?
ppalnning to introduce some feeder mollies again, and maybe breed tiger barbs to be introduced to my tank when the fries grow?
any suggestions/tips?

Mollies are good choice. maybe you could increase hiding spots for the fries to hide...

But if you want your aro to feed on mp or sw, i suggest you remove the mollies and tiger barbs though.

What kind of small insects? Too big insects ur aro will eat. Small insects small guppy mouth can feed they will eat too. Like bro leezhengxi recommend create hiding spot for ur small fish.

How about snails? My ramhorn snails are doing great job in clearing algae.
