Freshwater Apex Surface Predator • Genuine Deep Crimson Scales — The Flagship of the Red Lineage • 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.

📋 The Super Red Arowana is genuinely the most prized variety of Asian Arowana, native to the upper Kapuas River and Lake Sentarum in West Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo. Adults develop deep, blood-red scales across the body, gill plates, and fins, genuinely maturing from orange-gold juveniles into intense ruby adults under warm lighting and a proper diet — a process that takes years. The Blood Red and Chili Red varieties we also carry are genuinely recognized sub-grades of this same lineage.

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.
