SILVER AROWANA 4"

Bring a living piece of ancient majesty to your aquarium with the Silver Arowana 4". This prehistoric-looking "dragon fish" is a true showstopper, featuring a sleek, elongated body covered in large, brilliant silver scales that shimmer like polished metal. Its unique, upturned mouth and graceful, gliding movements make it a captivating and powerful presence in any tank. This small specimen is a great way to start with this fascinating species, but be aware that it has the potential to grow very quickly into a truly massive, impressive fish.

The Silver Arowana is a solitary and powerful top-dwelling predator. It is a carnivorous species that will happily coexist with any fish too large to fit in its mouth. It is known for its incredible jumping ability and can leap high out of the water to catch prey in the wild. For this reason, a very secure, weighted lid is an absolute must to prevent escapes. It's important to note that this fish will grow very large and requires a spacious aquarium to thrive in the long term.

Diet

For their diet, Silver Arowanas are carnivores and require a high-protein diet. As a top-dweller, it's best to feed them floating foods. They will readily accept high-quality carnivore sticks or large floating pellets. To ensure they receive all the necessary nutrients, supplement their diet with a variety of frozen or live foods like large bloodworms, shrimp, fish pieces, and crickets. A rich, varied diet will ensure your arowana remains healthy and strong.
