Cheers mate..!!

a "fake xb" may be an arowana from unknown parentage.
When buying a golden xb, hobbyists expect to buy fish with both parents that are golden arowana with more than 5 rows of shine.
this is very difficult to identify in baby arowana and hobbyist can only trust the breeders' word. only the breeders know the baby arowana's father. (sometimes, breeders don't even know who is the mother.)

some baby arowana looked like grade 2 red crossed with RTG, green, etc

Tks for all the expert explanation. Cert and tag is important so is the source.
I start to feed my aro with super worm. What is the daily amount of SW that i can feed my 9 inch aro?

Is it recommended to use this arcadia tanning light for my golden XB?

of course features are important. A beautiful fish is what hobbyists want at the end of the day.
but for new hobbyists like us, we can't identify a good fish easily.
so, getting a fish that was tagged by a trustworthy breeder helps ease the stress for new hobbyist.

Aro will be addicted to SW and it hard to digest. Try mix with market prawn, pellets etc.

Ya that true in a way. The first day i feed it with SW. Shortly after, it ignore MP. I have to starve a few days before it take MP again. Now back to normal, alt day then i feed with SW.

Any Aro expert to see if my Aro has breathing problem ? It loss it appetite since morning. YTD was feeding well with SW? But it is swimming normally? But I notice the grill is opening weirdly? I just do a 20% WC. I also turn up my heater to 32 degree. It is a com tank and my rays are doing well. Checked the water parameters and everything is good. Or I too paranoid?

your video is set to private. we can't watch.
Heater at 30C should be sufficient, higher temperature, less dissolved oxygen, more difficult for a panting arowana.
