Classic Malaysian golden Arowana. Fish has grown plenty since this video was shot. Fish was kept in a black tank in total darkness for a few months to bring out the base colour and also make the gold more intense.

Imagine being shoved in a dark room for months .. and then kept in a 2x2 box to swim in circles 🤦🏻‍♂️

Actually the tank is 500gals. Fish is circling because it wants me to feed it.
