Freshwater Apex Surface Predator • Genuine Leucistic Genetics — Near-Total Pigment Loss • CITES Appendix I Protected — Please Read Before Ordering

 

⚠️ Important Legal Information — Please Read First

We want to be genuinely direct on this one, same as with our other Asian Arowana varieties: this species is genuinely listed on CITES Appendix I — the strictest tier of international wildlife trade protection. Every legally traded specimen is individually microchipped and accompanied by a CITES certificate, a certificate of authenticity, and a birth certificate from a registered breeding farm. We are able to sell and ship this species legally within the framework that applies to us, but we want to be genuinely upfront: some countries, most notably the United States, prohibit the ownership or import of this species entirely, regardless of documentation. Please genuinely verify your own country's import laws before ordering.

 

📋 A genuinely important clarification: the Platinum Silver Arowana here is the true Asian variety (Scleropages formosus), a genuinely rare leucistic morph resulting in a near-total loss of pigmentation and a striking metallic silver-white sheen — this is a genuinely distinct trait from the standard "Silver Asian" natural color variety, and worth not confusing with the much more common (and considerably less expensive) leucistic South American Silver Arowana.

Genuine full leucism this complete is rare even among Asian Arowana, and the rarest, most uniformly pigment-free specimens are genuinely among the most valuable ornamental fish in the world.

This is a genuinely large, long-lived apex predator, reaching up to 90cm, requiring a very large aquarium, a secure tight-fitting lid given this species' documented jumping behavior, and a genuine long-term commitment.
