Platinum Arowana

Platinum Arowana is the world's rarest and most expensive tropical fish, and it is so valuable that it is implanted with a microchip before it is allowed to mature sexually. This fish can grow to be quite huge and can be found on numerous continents.

Platinum Arowana is a pearly white kind that has an uncommon genetic abnormality. They are thought to be the bearers of luck throughout Asia, bringing good health and fortune to their owners.

Arowanas come in a variety of colors, including gray, gold, and silver, but the platinum morph is the most beautiful and sought-after. These massive, ancient-looking fish have unusually angled teeth and enormous metallic scales.

In the wild, these bony fish can grow to the size of a miniature human – 3 feet. Another distinguishing feature of these fish is that their dorsal and anal fins grow all the way to their caudal fins. The eyes are also huge, the mouth is slant, and the tail is tapering.

They swim with forked barbels in their lower jaws to detect movement in the water. The most stunning and costly feature of Platinum Arowana is its unique hue or lack thereof.

Because of their unusual yet eerie similarity to dragons, they are regarded as dragon fish in China and other regions of Asia. These intimidating beasts are also violent, predatory, and, of course, carnivores! So raising them isn't exactly easy.
