Description: Arowana Fish size 4-5”Fast FactsArowana are known to use their thin, powerful body to jump out of the water to capture aerial prey.Because of its large scales and red coloration, it is given the nickname “dragonfish.”Despite their endangered status in the wild, the captive breeding of this species for the aquarium hobby trade has increased exponentially with more individuals in captivity than in the wild.CharacteristicsArowana are Osteoglossiformes, or bony-tongued fish. Most of their teeth are located on their tongue and the roof of their mouth. Their specialized mouth opens like a trapdoor, perfectly designed for surface feeding. At the bottom of their mouth they have a pair of tiny barbels which act as sensors. They possess very large scales to shield their body from predators. The scale color varies from silver to deep red and their back is often black.
