Hi all, I've kept a silver arowana in the past but had to sell it on when he got to about 12" long due to lack of space in my tank. It's now been a few years since those days and I now have my own home and space to be able to keep these wonderful creatures in comfort.
As much as I enjoyed raising the silver arowana I actually like the way the black arowana looks especially as a youngster, I know they loose the colours as adults but I think they keep a blue/black hue around the edges of the fins.
Does anyone know of suppliers or importers who can find them for me. The way I see it is that arowana's these days are not taken from the wild since they are endangered and there are lots of fish farms in Asia who breed arowana's successfully so surely someone must have managed to breed black arowana's.
Any help or advice anyone can give would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Shu
