Super Red

The Super Red Asian Arowana is a stunningly vibrant variety of the Asian Arowana, renowned for its vivid red coloration that captivates aquarists and collectors alike. Native to the slow-moving waters of Indonesia, particularly in regions such as Kalimantan and Sumatra, the Super Red Arowana is a symbol of luck and prosperity in many Asian cultures.

This magnificent breed is characterized by its elongated body, large metallic scales, and graceful, undulating movements, which give it an almost dragon-like appearance. The intensity of its red hue can vary from a deep crimson to a brilliant scarlet, and it often deepens as the fish matures, especially when provided with optimal conditions and a well-balanced diet rich in carotenoids.

Super Reds are known for their impressive size, often growing up to 90 centimeters in length in captivity, and they require a spacious tank to accommodate their active swimming habits. They are also distinguished by their long pectoral fins, which add elegance to their gliding movements. Known for their intelligence and interactive behavior, these fish can recognize their owners and can even be trained to hand-feed.

To maintain the vivid coloration and overall health of the Super Red Arowana, aquarists must provide excellent water quality and a varied diet, including insects, crustaceans, and specially formulated pellets. As a prized possession, this breed not only serves as a decorative centerpiece but also embodies natural beauty and symbolizes status, making it a coveted addition to any exotic fish collection.
