Freshwater Fish • Surface Predator • Asian Dragonfish • Show Species
 
📋 The Blood Red Arowana (Scleropages formosus) is the crown jewel of Asian freshwater fish, revered as the “Dragon Fish” for its majestic scales, powerful movement, and symbolic status across Asia.
This variant, native to Borneo’s blackwater river systems, develops an intense crimson coloration across its scales, fins, and gill plates as it matures — a transformation that can take several years of optimal care and diet.
Highly intelligent and responsive to its keeper, this species exhibits an almost reptilian awareness. It requires ample open swimming space, a tight lid, and stable warm conditions to thrive. The Blood Red Arowana isn’t just a fish — it’s a living status symbol of prestige, patience, and perfection.
