Blue Base Arowana Available for Purchase

The Blue Base Arowana Fish, also known as the Malaysian Golden Blue Base Crossback, originates from Malaysia. It displays a vibrant golden tone layered over a deep blue base. As a result, it stands out as one of the most visually striking Arowana varieties.

We focus on breeding and selecting the Blue Base variant. This type develops a bright blue foundation with rich golden scales. The Crossback name comes from the way the golden color fully crosses the back, creating a complete and premium look.

These fish develop color early. In many cases, they show strong scale definition at just 8–10 inches. Therefore, they are highly desirable for collectors who want fast-developing beauty.

Arowana in the Wild: An Overview

Arowanas belong to the ancient Osteoglossidae family. People often call them “bony tongues” because of the toothed plate in their mouth. In addition, they are found in rivers and lakes across South America, Southeast Asia, and Australia.

Their long bodies, large scales, and barbels give them a dragon-like appearance. Because of this, many cultures associate them with luck and power. Consequently, they are often called “dragon fish.”

How to Feed Blue Arowana

Feeding plays a critical role in growth and coloration. Blue Arowanas are carnivorous and require a high-protein diet. You should offer high-quality pellets along with live or frozen foods such as shrimp and insects.

To learn more about proper feeding routines, read feeding arowana properly for best results.

Feed them once or twice daily. However, only give portions they can finish quickly. This approach prevents overfeeding and helps maintain clean water conditions.
