wow, thats really nice looking .... is this also known as the Nile Arowana?

I've never heard it referred to as that but it would make sense as a nickname.
 
Nile Arowana

Thats the same fish although I have not heard the fish being called that in quite some time.

The black coloration on that African Arowana is awesome! One of the best photos of an African Arowana I have seen.

In Sacramento, Captial Aquarium had an African Arowana in a 1000 gallon for over 10 years and their Arowana eventually maxed out in size at about 3 feet. It was by far one of the most active Arowanas I have ever seen. The fish seemed to feed all day long.
 
Awesome! One of my dream fish - its great to see one that size and thriving :thumbsup:
