yes, do a water change and redesign/change the tank decors, this will destruct its territorial claim.
then put the mates together if possible.
Tankmates:
-should not be as Big as the Aro. threats, will make it more aggressive.
-and by volume (dinaghan) so it cant focus in one target.
-bottom or middle dwellers.
-and of course not to small.

bro i dont have decors to redesign or change but what do u mean sa water change?il change all of the water content jud or just a bit like 20-40% of it?can you suggest bro any bottom or middle dwellers?i mean tankmates na tighurot lang as excess food sticks sa akong aro ba so more like herbivores na type?thanks!

Bro, the purpose is to take out the Aro's Territorial place.
you can do half or much better if you take it out of the tank and do the cleaning.
then put the tank mates then last is the Aro. <---mas hastle ni, but effective. ^^
for the mates, try the Cichlids type of fishes (nay daghan) fast and can finish the leftovers.
catfish can help too.

@PAIN
sir no good tanan, gibuhat nako tanan sir but i think my aro is one bad ass territorial na bully jud..did all your advices then ako pa sya gibusog ug variety of feeders from live feeds to frozen shrimps to aro pellets, pag introduce nako kay gluttony kaayo gipugos niya ug kaon and ang uban gipatay lang jud nia sir. thats equivalent to 10pcs of 5-6" golden tinfoils plus 2pcs ornate bichirs. tsk tsk tsk i think bsad pleco iya gihapon ebully sir nuand 1 last question sad how bout i put those red cherry shrimps sir gagmay kaayo na sila,do u think emind pa na sa ako aro?im planning on getting like 3-5 pairs cguro basi mbreed sila sa ako 6ft tank. hope for your fast reply sir. thanks!

waaa malditoha sa imo Aro gud. hahaha
It works on my friend and mine.
I take out my Aro in its tank, and put the mates 1st.
anyways, Do not put the shrimps!
It will kill the Aro by damaging its billy, kay iya gud na kan-on.
hinoun gagmay rakayo na. ^^

@cocoyosalla,
nay daghan but not in the malls kay mahal.
buy, silver aro for practise.
