Black Arowana

[GinBlack]

I have a baby black, say about 3 inches and he still dons the black,yellow and orange coloration. I was wondering, when could I expect his colors to change? More or less what length will he be?

not sure really man, Im getting my first Blk Aro this weekend, you saw pics of the one Im getting so maybe that can give you a idea what he will look like at 15 inch.

agree around 5" your aro will start to lose it's dark coloration.

Ahhhh 5 inches and the morphing begins! I've always seen adults and babies but never in between. As much as I love the black coloration I look forward to seeing him change his colors!

By 5" it will only be a dull gray.
