wild caught asian arowana...

[hurricane_redbone]

do these even exist or are asian arowanas just the result of a lot of cross breeding and are actually not found in the wild in asia?

if they do exist wat coloring does the original have... if anyone has pics or info on this please share...

What the greens look like. They are wild found or else they wouldn't be a seperate species. Can i ask why is this in the photo lounge when there is a section dedicated to arrowanna on this forum?

Golds do exist .. The gold is just plain gold , base colours and coloured finnage are results of in-breeding. It's just like a Green with Golden Scales.

You meant captive breeding... We hardly see a plain gold anymore

Take a look at this brochure:

It's a green from Cambodia. The reds from Indonesia look similar to the reds on the market, but were duller. I've seen pics around of WC reds.
