Are Arowana Hardy Fish?

Asian arowanas, like all arowanas, are very sensitive to water quality. We noticed that missing a single water change made them lethargic. When you keep the water quality at an optimum, however, these fish are very hardy and will live a long time.

Can arowana survive in cold water?

Arowana will prefer to stay in water with Ph slightly acidic between 6.5 – 7 (7 being neutral). The temperatures between 24 – 29 degrees, excessively high temperature can cause the fish to age faster and look less like arowana and too cold water might kill the fish itself.
