The Arowana is a large, powerful freshwater fish admired for its metallic scales, graceful movement, and dragon-like appearance. Known as a symbol of luck and prosperity in many cultures, Arowanas are intelligent surface-dwelling predators that require very large aquariums with secure lids due to their incredible jumping ability. These majestic fish can grow over 2 feet long and thrive in warm, clean water with plenty of swimming space. Arowanas are carnivorous and enjoy a diet of insects, shrimp, pellets, and protein-rich foods. Their bold personality, shimmering colors, and prehistoric appearance make them one of the most iconic centerpiece fish in the aquarium hobby.
