Hello, I purchased this robotic arm (https://www.dfrobot.com/product-192.html#:~:text=DFLG6DOF%20is%20a%20bionic%20robotic,be%20rotated%20about%20180%20degrees) and wanted to control it via ARC. Should the servos be compatible? I also think it could have something to do my power adapter. I am using a 9V DC 800 mA adapter.

Why are you using a 9V power adapter. They clearly specify in the site: Operating Voltage: 4.8 ~ 7.2V - Operating Current: 3A @ 5V (max) I would use a 6 to 7V 3amp or more power supply.
Yeah - those servos are compatible. I would use the correct voltage as mentioned by @proteusy, however. The servos appear to be lowcost hobby style servos that use a generic pwm signal from any EZB. You can use either an arduino or we would recommend an EZ-B IoTiny by EZ-Robot.

The ARC robot skill that will be most useful to you for this robot arm will be the Auto Position. The manual is here: https://synthiam.com/Support/Skills/Movement-Panels/Auto-Positioner-Gait?id=16057
