i agree, the silvers r still pretty small. if u really wanna add new tank mates, can try a divider, let them get used to the presence of each other first.

small minor squabbling is normal, my silvers do at times, but no major fights.

when my silvers were small, i trained them to take pellets. later on, i tried froggies & dried shrimps, works well too. i suppose for smaller silvers, other than blood worms can try MW too.

bloodworm is ok but heard that the exoskeletons of the bw will cause indigestion for the aros...

check out http://www.riverwonders.com they sell black arowanas.

give them a call because their website hasn't been updated for a while now. it may not reflect the most current inventory or stock. also, check them out at BBB.com. i don't want you to pay $150 and end up with no fish because it was all a big scam. i just have a feeling though that this may not be legit.

they have address in boulder, co and west hills, ca.

(818) 702-0558
(818) 430-6826

my LFS said that since the blacks sell for a higher price when they are around 6" long and their color is blueish, no LFS will be selling babies anymore. they sometimes call them Blue Arowanas because they turn blueish sometime around 5-6". they go for $200 or higher. there is a website that sells it for $140 > go to www.riverwonders.com. check out the address and if you are in CALIFORNIA, check it out first.
