Información del producto

🐟 Silver Arowana – (Osteoglossum bicirrhosum) – Majestic South American Predator

The Silver Arowana is one of the most iconic freshwater fish in the aquarium hobby, known for its long, sleek body, large metallic silver scales, and graceful, snake-like swimming motion. Native to the rivers, floodplains, and flooded forests of the Amazon and Orinoco basins, this surface-dwelling predator is famous for its ability to leap from the water to snatch prey such as insects, small fish, and even birds in the wild.

Highly sought after by large predatory fish keepers, the Silver Arowana is a powerful swimmer that demands ample space and secure tank lids to prevent jumping.
