CHINESE DRAGON FISH BREEDING
Arowana is mouthbrooders. Asian Arowana is hard to sex, especially when they are young. Sexual maturity depends on environmental conditions, but generally, females take 2-3 years and male 4-5 years to reach maturity. generally, males are larger in size and fin then its female siblings, which give then a more arrogant look. It is believed that it also has a wider and deeper jaw(to hold the eggs and fry). Females, on the other hand, are smaller and have a more rounded body. It takes a lot of experience to sex mature Arowana, only when they start breeding will you be 100% sure.
There are two ways to pair up Arowana. By natural pairing or matching. Matching is inherently more dangerous as Arowana are territorial. They will inevitably fight if you keep two together. Their aggression decreases when the number of Arowana keep together increased to 6 or more. Also, remember that you will need a mighty big tank to hold 6 Arowana. The bigger the tank, the better
NATURAL PAIRING - At least six mature Arowana are needed to have a reasonable chance of getting a pair. Young that have grown up together is preferable. If not, they should be placed into the tank at the same time so that none will have the chance to develop a territorial sense earlier then others.
Observe closely until a pair appears to have formed noted by the male swimming closely to the female and chasing the rest away. At this time remove the rest of the Arowana from the tank.
Courting will take place over a 1-2 months period. They will continue to swim closely together, often in a circular motion, chasing and biting each other’s tails and fins often cause injuries to the body as well. Females usually sustain more injuries, especially in the anal fin, genital area and gill cover, possibly due to male trying to stimulate her hormonal secretion.
Their appetite will drop gradually, as the abdomen of the female will start to swell up and filled with eggs. An area, usually a less disturbed area with a weak current, will be chosen to lay the eggs. Covering the spawning area of the tank is recommended to avoid disturbing or terminating the spawning due to stress.
At the time of egg release, they will then swim parallel to each other, rubbing against each other and occasionally stayed motionless. Eventually, they will stop swimming, but continue rubbing bodies until, with a sudden spasm, the female will release her eggs and simultaneously the male fertilizes by releasing his sperm. Spawning usually takes place in the afternoon with the number of eggs laid averaging 60 and being up to 1/2“ in diameter. The male will immediately scoop up as many eggs as possible with the remainder usually eaten by the female.
During the hatching period, the female will start to chase the male, possibly violently. It is possible that the male might swallow some eggs accidentally during this chasing, therefore, it is a good idea to remove the female away at that time.
The yolk sac should be fully absorbed in around 60 days. The fry will then begin to leave the father’s mouth, first briefly and slowly increase the duration. You should have a supply of baby guppies on hand at this stage. Once the fry begins to eat readily for a few days they can be removed from the parent. Use standard procedures mentioned in the care section.
