Uhh my silver scales are turning....gold?!

[Casper2000]

So I've always noticed that 2 of my silvers scales are half gold (been that way for over a yr now) but I was looking at it tonight and its left half the scales look like they have been dusted/glazed gold. The right side looks normal. Anyone have any idea what might be going on? I'll try to get pics later, its kinda difficult

A golden silver arowana.
I'm sure it would more expensive than a platinum.

Goldslick vodka (lawl SuperBad joke). Strictly shrimp

Never heard of this...probably something with feeding him only shrimp

Naw he's had the gold flaked scales even when the light was more blue. I secretly hope he turns golden. He's fat as hell though so I cut him down to meals every other day

I secretly hope he turns golden.

Well the cats outta the bag now.

Good luck with him. There are gold variations out there. Usually silvers are more of a tanish brown where yours is gold. Unique.

Yeah, time will tell. He's only 2yrs old so he's got some ways to go
