A1 Malaysian Golden Super High Back Arowana Scleropages Formosus 15cm – Auction

Overview: The Malaysian Golden High Back Arowana is a prestigious and highly sought-after freshwater fish, known for its vibrant golden scales and majestic appearance. This species symbolizes wealth and prosperity in many cultures, making it a popular choice among aquarium enthusiasts.

Origin: Native to the freshwater bodies of Malaysia, this Arowana variety thrives in a habitat that mimics tropical river systems. Their natural environment is characterized by soft, acidic water, dense vegetation, and a rich ecosystem that provides ample food and shelter.

Feeding: These carnivorous fish require a protein-rich diet to maintain their health and coloration. Live foods such as crickets, mealworms, and small fish are preferred, along with high-quality pellets or frozen foods specifically formulated for Arowanas. Varied diet helps in promoting vibrant color and overall health.

Tank Mates: Due to their size and territorial nature, choosing the right tank mates is crucial. Suitable companions include larger, peaceful fish that can hold their own without competing for territory. Avoid small fish that could be seen as prey. Species like large plecos, certain types of cichlids, and larger catfish can cohabit well with the Golden Arowana.

Aggression: The Malaysian Golden High Back Arowana can exhibit territorial behavior, especially towards fish of similar size and shape. It’s important to monitor interactions and ensure adequate space for each fish to establish its territory within the aquarium.

Experience Level: Caring for this Arowana requires an intermediate to advanced level of fishkeeping knowledge. Understanding the specific needs and behaviors of this species is essential for creating a suitable and healthy environment.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 75-86°F (24-30°C)
  • pH: 6.0-7.5
  • Hardness: 1-10 dGH
  • Water quality must be maintained at high levels, with regular water changes and efficient filtration to remove waste and toxins. A spacious tank (minimum of 150 gallons) with plenty of swimming room is also necessary to accommodate their size and active nature.

This magnificent fish is not only a captivating sight in any aquarium but also a symbol of good luck and fortune. With the right care and environment, the Malaysian Golden High Back Arowana will thrive, providing an impressive centerpiece to your aquatic collection.
