arowana colour

Just add one to two years with a lot of TLC in your tank ! ...:)

The colour of the fish depends on the gene of the fish itself.

1- Food with carotene content, feed carots to your SW before feeding will help a little bit.
2- Using Nan Light to actificially tan the fish.

Good Luck,
 
I gut load anything live I feed my aro. To James' point, anything high in carotenoids is going to help with colour-- carrots, sweet potato, kale, red peppers, etc. I also gut load with a high quality fish flake.

If you can get him on Hikari sticks, always a good choice, too.

And when he gets a bit bigger, I still swear by live frogs if you can get a good clean source.
 
my 5" RTG's cert says golden red also. somehow, he stopped eating sticks when he got home. now he eats MP and aro sticks feed mealworms.
