Albino Golden Crossback Arowana Scleropages Formosus 20cm

Overview: The Albino Golden Crossback Arowana is a stunning and rare variant of the Golden Arowana, prized for its unique albino coloration and the distinctive “crossback” pattern, where the golden color extends across the back and down to the scales, creating a mesmerizing effect. This majestic fish is a symbol of prosperity and luck in many cultures, making it a sought-after addition to the home aquarium.

Origin: Native to the freshwater basins of Southeast Asia, the Albino Golden Crossback Arowana thrives in environments that mimic the tropical rivers and streams of its homeland.

Feeding: This carnivorous species requires a varied diet to maintain its health and coloration. Offer a mix of live and frozen foods such as shrimp, small fish, and mealworms. Occasional supplements of vitamins and minerals are recommended to support its overall well-being.

Tank Mates: Due to its size and territorial nature, the Albino Golden Crossback Arowana is best kept with large, peaceful fish that can hold their own without competing for territory. Avoid small, aggressive, or overly timid species to prevent stress and conflict.

Aggression: While generally peaceful towards similarly sized fish, the Arowana can be territorial and may exhibit aggression towards tank mates if not provided with ample space and environmental enrichment.

Experience Level: This fish is recommended for advanced hobbyists. Its care requires a deep understanding of its needs, including a large aquarium (minimum of 250 gallons), meticulous water quality management, and secure tank coverage to prevent jumping.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 75°F to 86°F (24°C to 30°C)
  • pH: 6.5 to 7.5
  • Hardness: 5 to 15 dGH

Keeping the Albino Golden Crossback Arowana is a rewarding experience, offering the aquarist a glimpse into the beauty and grace of one of the aquarium world’s most prestigious inhabitants. Its captivating presence and the care it demands make it a jewel in any large freshwater aquarium.
