Michelle,
I have seen a similiar case at a fish shop and the shop owner was trying to cure it.
It's a swim bladder problem.
The spin curvature is also not normal and probably an accompanying symptom - you will need to keep the top scales of the arowana wet otherwise it will develop secondary issues like fungus. You may want to put a powerhead near the surface to prevent that.
1 month is rather long. In some cases, owners see improvement and complete recovery after a few weeks. Do you have a fish vet in your area?
