Questions about died aros

[Askaleymanfish]

So my old aro kicked the bucket and found a blueberry silver aro ..... Died blue of course I bought it cause curiosity got the better of me .... So my questions r does anyone no how they r dyed? And does it affect them in anyway? Like will it stunt their growth or shorten their life or anything ? And will the die eventually fade out as they grow and go back to normal colors?

Dyed arowanas can be dyed in different ways theoretically. I believe there is a process similar to glofish that is permanent. However, there is another process (that I don't know specifics of) but it is temporary. This is what you see with most arowanas (never heard of a permanently dyed arowanas). So the young blue and pink arowanas you see tend to fade as they age.

Like people, some fish turn blue when they die. Have no clue how your fish died. You bet it affects them. Once died, they never grow anymore. Their life is over. LOL!
Good luck with your new fish.

Dyeing is a cruel process,the fish are dipped into a acid to remove the slime coat,then dipped or injected with dye that often isn't fish safe,the dye wears off but fish often retain problems with health and often die prematurely.
I have tried to dye bettas,crayfish and a few others humanely by adding food dye to the water for a few days but it doesn't work.

That's the reason I bought this guy was because I felt bad for it cause I don't think dyeing a fish is a great way to live and as for it not growing much I'm ok with that if it lives happily ...... I personally don't like the color of it a natural silver looks much better so I do hope it fades out
