Hi everyone!

I just bought a 5 inch silver arowana that has a nice red color to it.
I am making this thread because I am interested in seeing how a silver can look when it is close to full grown. Most full grown silvers I have seen lose all their red color and become very metallic looking in color. So, basically I am hoping to see some full grown with nice red color intact. Thanks for your posts in advance.

my silver looked great when he was little...very colorful.

now that he is a year and a half old, and 25", he gets whiter and whiter by the month.
 
24".. I still see a lot of color on her scales.. pink and green.. esp when sunlight hits the tank..

they turn to a metallic silver color when they grow up! thats why they have the name silver arowana!
