You're limited. Aro's will eat anything they can fit in their mouth. My 24" silver even ate a 10" Pleco once. Not sure how he found that tasty, but whatever..

Try a couple large cichlids like a fully Jack Dempsey or Frontosa perhaps?

I don't like cichlids I have them before I was thinking of getting senegal.

larger bichirs should be ok

stingrays if you have the footprint

larger spiny eels (fire eel)

rainbow snakehead

Clown Knife

Here is the footprint 48" long x 24 wide x 31 high

A well fed silver arowana won't last in there for long. Will you upgrade when he gets too big? I would go at least 72 x 24 for a silver. Even that won't be enough for a forever home. I used to keep my 2 4' silvers in a 10' x 5' pond I built in my basement.
