About the Violet Fusion Super Red Arowana

The Violet Fusion Super Red is one of the rarest and most sought-after color morphs of the Asian Arowana. It exhibits a unique violet or purplish iridescence over a deep red base, creating a "fusion" effect that changes with lighting and viewing angle. This fish is a true collector's piece and represents the pinnacle of red arowana coloration.

Appearance

Juveniles may show hints of violet on the scales, which intensify with age. Mature specimens display a rich red body with a distinct violet sheen, especially on the scale rims and operculum. The fins are deep red, and the overall effect is mesmerizing. Each fish has a unique pattern of coloration that develops over 2-4 years.

Size & Growth

Violet Fusion Super Reds reach 24-28 inches in captivity. They are robust growers when provided with optimal conditions. Our fish are captive-bred and well-acclimated to aquarium life.

Tank Requirements

Provide a minimum 250-gallon tank with a secure lid. Strong filtration and regular water changes are essential. Water parameters: temperature 78-84°F, pH 6.5-7.5, soft to moderately hard water. Stable water quality is key to color development.

Diet

To enhance the violet sheen and red color, feed a varied diet: high-quality color-enhancing pellets, live or frozen shrimp, crickets, small fish, mealworms, and supplement with natural color enhancers like krill, spirulina, and astaxanthin.

Compatibility

Violet Fusion 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.
