SILVER ASIAN AROWANA

[AAVPredatory]

^Good idea.....and by the way,a silver Asian aro?...can you post a few photos of it?

They are in a 210 right now. Those were the best photos I could take of the fish. The aro are the frozen bloodworms but my bichir doesn’t seem to find the food.

Doesn't really look Scleropages to me. It looks Osteoglossidae.

That's because it is a silver but not an Asian arowana.

So then why is it called a silver asian arowanna?

Yes it’s a silver aro. Asian aros are illegal in the states.

I’m new to the hobby. I made the mistake of naming the thread “silver asain” I’m sorry sir.

I’m not to the hobby. I made the mistake of naming the thread “silver asain” I’m sorry sir.

Nothing wrong. Just thought it was a new variant.
BTW, if you have a 210 and an aro, you are in it waaaaay deeper than me lol. I just have a 55 and a 10, and community fish right now

I was thinking that the dealer mislabeled the fish.....and was hoping he didn't lie to you about what kind of species it was.
