Arowana fish - Care, Breeding and Tips
Arowana fish are regarded my many fish keepers as the ultimate fish to add to their aquarium. They display beautiful markings, become very tame in the tank and can become a very close pet for many people. Often these fish are kept in unsuitable conditions due to the lack of knowledge available so hopefully this article will enlighten anyone who wishes to keep these fish and ensure that the fish leads a long and happy life.
The Asian Arowana originates from South East Asia where it inhabits slow moving waters ,they have collected several common names including Asian bony-tongue, Chinese dragon and Asian dragon fish. They belong to the family Osteoglossidae, and have been placed in the genus Scleropages. It is believed that all of the strains, this has yet to be fully proven, have derived from Scleropages formosus. They play a large part in Chinese culture as they are supposed to closely resemble the Chinese dragon that plays such a large part in their myths and folklores.
Australian Arowana are believed to be the forefathers of all Arowana species, they are also found in quiet waterways in Australia, the Arowana cannot survive in salt water so the Asian and Australian species must have split when the land masses moved apart millions of years ago, these fish are often known as living fossils as they still have many features of ancient fish that lived in our waterways millions of years ago. Due to the immense popularity of these fish they are now classed as endangered species and any specimens exported for trade have to be registered and all specimens should be micro-chipped to prove that they have come from a reliable and certified supplier.
Caring for your Arowana:-
These fish need space and lots of it. The minimum size tank would have to be at least 120 gallons, preferably a tank of 180 gallons should be used. Depth of the tank is not important, the width and length of the tank play a larger part in the well being of the fish. The width of the tank should be at least the same as the length of the fish, this will give the fish room to turn and manoeuvre without feeling cramped, the length should be 3 times the length of the fish, they are constantly on the move so need space to swim about. Many keepers I know keep there Arowana in tanks that are 6’x2’x2’ with great success. For the substrate a fine gravel can be used but make sure that there are no sharp edges it must be well rounded and rocks or driftwood can be added for décor but keep these minimal as too much décor will hamper the swimming space available. Often these fish are kept in bare bottomed tanks, this can be detrimental to Australian Arowana as they will spend a lot of time looking down at their reflection and this can bring on a case of drop-eye or bulging eye. Plants can be added, often Vallisneria is used but the plants may get attacked, especially at feeding time, hardy plants should survive this onslaught but never add delicate plants.
A big must is using a secure and tight fitting lid, these fish are excellent jumpers, this is a trait from the wild species that use this method for catching prey, any lid that isn’t secure can be knocked off and the fish will escape from the tank, this is the last thing you want with these expensive fish. Water quality is paramount, if the quality drops the fish may stop eating and waste away, never add these fish to an uncycled tank, perform regular water changes of at least 10% weekly. The temperature should range from 27°C to 30°C and a pH of around 7.0 .
