About the Green Base Super Red Arowana

The Green Base Super Red is a captivating color morph of the Asian Arowana. It features a distinct greenish base color on its scales, which can range from a subtle jade to a rich emerald, combined with the classic deep red fins and body. This combination creates a unique and visually striking appearance.

Appearance

Juveniles often show a silvery-green base that becomes more pronounced as they mature. Adult specimens display a vibrant green base with red scale rims, and the fins are a deep, consistent red. The intensity of both colors is influenced by genetics, diet, and water conditions. High-quality fish exhibit even green coverage and bright red fins.

Size & Growth

Green Base Super Reds typically reach 24-28 inches in captivity with proper care. Growth is steady, and they can live for decades. Our fish are captive-bred and well-started.

Tank Requirements

Provide a minimum 250-gallon tank with a secure lid. Excellent filtration and regular water changes are crucial. Ideal water parameters: temperature 78-84°F, pH 6.5-7.5, soft to moderately hard water.

Diet

To enhance and maintain color, offer a varied diet: high-quality color-enhancing pellets, live or frozen shrimp, crickets, small fish, mealworms, and supplement with natural color enhancers like krill or spirulina.

Compatibility

Green Base Super Reds can be housed with other large, peaceful fish such as stingrays, large catfish, and cichlids. Avoid aggressive tank mates. Only one Arowana per tank is recommended unless you have a proven pair and a very large aquarium.
