The Asian Arowanas (Scleropages sp.) belong to the most fascinating fish of the World. Due to their brilliant colors, their large scales, their swimming pattern and their large fins, they remind us of the ancient and mythological Dragons! Keeping these Dragon fishes at home brings luck and fits perfectly to the philosophy of Feng Shui. However, some wild populations of Dragon fishes are threatened by extinction and all are therefore listed on Appendix 1 of CITES. Thus only captive bred specimens are open for the trade. This book reflects the actual status quo of the captive bred Asian Arowana population, with well over 500 fascinating and brilliant color photographs. Everything you need to know, wanted to know or should now about those fascinating creatures is in this book! Separated in chapters about Arowana breeding farms, reports (with photos) of true international Arowana fans, all the different color patterns in photos, breeding reports, feeding, other fish that can be kept with the Dragon, diseases and cures, water parameters, how to obtain a CITES permit, really everything you need to know about the Dragon fish! The ultimate Arowana reference book!! Review: A must for Arowana fans ! - It is everything I ever wanted in an Arowana book ! The photos are superb, there are tons of advice from other Arowana fans, and even a chapter on common dieases. My only complain is that there are far too few books ( especially hardcover ones ) on Arowana in desertcart.com Review: Asian arowana not updated and not much information - this book is foof for including so many color photos of asian arowana. there are many information for asian arowana farmer for their marketing. there are some pity of this book such as below; 1. asian arowana story and history. 2. not updated (lack information of batik asian arownan etc) 3. missing the how to know the sex of asian arowana. 4. breeding information. 5. regulation and international law about asian arowana and CITES. Anyway it is good for asian arowna lover to seed the photo of them. but There are so many photo are in the internet.

Misled information.
There is no information on how to keep, care, breed and raise the fish. Why should people pay for just advertising?
