Let's visit the 2023 CIPS Global Arowana Championship! Arowana are known as "dragon fish" because of their large shiny scales, long serpent-like body, and whiskers around their mouth. Cory shows us arowana of every color and scale pattern imaginable - including brilliant gold, blood red, and steel blue. Plus, they had other championships going on at the same time, like datnoid tiger fish and aquascaping contests.

First pin maybe?
What gorgeous specimen!
That long finned one looked like it was walking...and it's fins seemed almost transparent.
All I could think of when I saw the title was a larger version of Betta fight club 😂
That’s exactly what I said to myself then I saw your comment. They produce enough now I’d assume to legalize don’t you think 🤔
There really is no question why arowanas are associated with wealth and riches. Absolutely beautiful! I had never heard of long-finned arowanas before.
So happy you are making these trips and share the experience with us!
I highly recommend reading "The Dragon Behind the Glass" by Emily Voigt to learn more about this fish and some of the crazy stuff that goes on to acquire and breed them.
Thanks for the info!
I never knew they come in such a variety!!
Yes that book was SO good!
Loved that book. hahaha I actually just commented the same thing before seeing you already had!
Those long fin arowanas look like a straight-up dragon 🤯
It’s called 龙鱼 for a reason
The dragon fish👌🏻
That long fin is incredibly beautiful but such a noticeable impact to his swimming
I guess it helps that it never has to swim very far
I was thinking the same thing. I don’t like selective breeding to the point where it impacts the fishes mobility so much.
You see that a lot with Bettas and Angelfish too, years of selective breeding to get those long beautiful fins. But they end up hurting the fishes ability to swim, especially with old age
Wow, the long-finned ones really look like giant bettas. Wish I could keep one.
They really do. Giant water puppies 😊
Only 100k buck
It's crazy to think how they move then, from tank to tank, and all their fins were perfect. You'd think the fins would be beat up from moving. They got net skills!
Net and wrap them in the netting so they can't thrash about. Some use towel contraptions.
From the professional side we used specialized bag nets, essentially a giant plastic bag with a small amount of fine rubberized mesh at the end. Super slow movements is key. Bag net into big bag while in the tank. Only way to limit the thrashing.
They used anesthetic while moving them
wonder if they use koi sock nets
We dont use nett moving arowana. Nett will broke fins and tail. They normally guide them into plastic beg and transfer together with some water..
So pretty Arowana 😮😮
Wow wow wee!! ❤🫶
Arowana Super Red From West Kalimantan - Indonesia😍❤️🇮🇩
My grandpa used to own a huge silver dragon fish. When my consin was 3, he wanted to pet the big fish, and then he fell into the huge tank. 🇨🇳❤
My local fish store use to keep one of these in a large circular tank and it was perfect for viewing it.
Never been a fan of long fin fish but the Arowana is definitely 1 that can pull it off , has always been my dream fish to have a high quality dragon if I ever came in to a load of money
Wow! Very impressive 😀 I've never seen so many good looking Arowana! Much appreciated!
Some impressive Arrawana there! Looks a great day! Enjoyed watching
I was in Guangzhou in 2005. My friends that I stayed with brought me to the aquarium district. I had no idea they were bringing me thier. It was great. Thanks for sharing.
wow those are incredible fishes thank you for sharing with us!
Love this!!! Thank you for the content
Wonder how much your social credit goes up for owning one of these.
Thanks for allowing us to see these amazingly beautiful fish
Wow another good one! Thanks for going all the way to China so we could see this.🐟🐟🐟🐟🐟😎
Amazing video, thanks for posting it.
I LOVE fish shows. It gives us an idea of the more perfect representatives of type and conformation, and what to strive for in breeding.
Those look stunning!!
Thank you for sharing!
I lived in Taiwan for two years and I miss seeing Arowana all the time. Very cool book called "Dragon Behind the Glass" by Emily Voight. Talks about the infamous Asian Arowana and their origins, thefts, and alure. Highly recommend.
Man I would love to go there and see that in person! Those are the most beautiful fish in the world
so honor to own a couple chilli red in the early 90 as a young teen, had a good friend who own a shop in Cali who took the risk to sell me one. It was like Christmas every weds new exotic shipment. 😁 so heart broken when he sold his shop early 2000. Thank you Mr tong!
AMAZING 😳😲😀👍🏻❤️
Those long fin ones look like they have painted cheeks. Reminds me of the historic dancers with the long sleeves. Thanks for sharing these gorgeous fish Cory! 🙏🏽💗
Please bring up more from that trip.
Awesome video bro thank you for this
That butterfly arowana is the most amazing thing I've seen!
Beautiful fish , thanks
Those are some beautiful fish!
That was incredible.
nice thanks for the video
Wow that one with a long tailed and fins is the over all champ, so rare beautiful breeds and the color combination is amazing!💗🙂
Great impressions thanks for sharing 🫶
Good lord! That aro at the 5:20 mark os STUNNING!!!
Wow! 😱 Amazing! 🤯
Beautiful fish. Crazy to believe that people could just steal a fish that big at an event that seems so big.
What ? Nobody is going to steal a 3 foot long fish good luck trying😅
indonesia pride...SUPER RED AROWANA DRAGON 🔥
Ehhh, not my thing, I'd rather have a neon tetra school...! Thanks, keep up your awesomeness and go enjoy some nature today...! Don't forget to compliment someone today...
Arowana from Indonesia is the best 🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Super cool !
Wow that was insane. Cory. Especially that last one and textured one, what is that thing at the end of their mouth? And does it work like barbels of a Corydoras? Thanks mate, from Australia.
Love the gold with purple base stunning
I have a off topic question. Can you grow dwarf hair grass under water? I'm starting a planted tank and in some spots the substrate dips and the water has covered the seeds. It's been 2 days and I hope I haven't screwed up lol
They're so calm, I wonder if they have a method of achieving such calmness? My aros flip out when I walk by the tank!
Was thinking about how calm they are too. I hope they don't mix anything into the water 😕
I wonder if they get used to being "displayed" and being around a lot of people and being transported so much, so it doesn't really bother them.
I would to get one of them here in the US! Love the colors
They are so majestic!
and an endangered species
@@heaven7360 Unfortunately.
The red/orange/silver one with fins like a Beta is simply MAGNIFICENT! As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
The holy grail of the hobby!
Your fish is amazing
Amazing fish
amazing arwana super red from indonesia 😍😍
Wow amazing fish
Amazingly beautiful fishes. Living treasures. Asian arowana have fetched up to $300k at auction.
welcome to china, hope you will enjoy the trip here.
That long fin looked like a giant Beta..
I grew up going to a sweet pet storein San Diego that had large arowanas on display. I worked in the high end aquarium trade for nearly 10 years and never met anyone who had 1 in their tanks. I almost bought 1 a few times but such a big investment in time money and space.
Wow impressive ❤
5star slayer Golden Red Aro.. superb...
Very nice
On the filters do guys bring there own live media or they just start from new and hope ammonia stays low.?
That Longfin Arowana is sweet!!! 🥰😍 🤤 😊
If you had a 2.5 by 1.5 by 1.5 ft tank, then what species of fish would you like to add and by what quantity?
Arowanas are so beautiful
Wow… looking at the thumbnail/starting shot, I just realized that arawana are just gigantic betta! 😉
We finally found the last evolution to betta fish. 😂
How did people react to the long fin enteries?
Like real life pokemon, especially that super long finned guy. Unreal.
That bettawana is the cooooooolest fish i ever saw 😍😮😍
This is arowana from Indonesia is the best! Champion 🇲🇨🇲🇨
Long fin red dragon... I'm impressed.
woww they're so beautiful arowana...
👍. Amazing
"Babe there's a cory video again!!"
wow nice long fin arowana😊😊😊
The arowana with the very long butterfly like fins - to me its what a betta would look like if it was the size of a large koi. I normally don't care for arowanas since they are high maintenance and take up a lot of space, but for a specimen like that, I'd be tempted to have an arowana tank if I had the money and and space for it.
Wow😮❤
The long fins are impressive but I also feel bad for the guys, that's so much weight and you can tell moving around takes more out of them than the rest
Wow that long Fin Chilli Red really is the closest animal to a Dragon Surely 👀🐉
Arowanas are considered the re-incarnation of the dragon. Red for fortune in the home, Gold for success in business, and not sure what the Green is all about!!
The security wow
How the champion is selected, do they fry the fish and winner is selected according to taste?
that dragon is majestic
The United States SHOULD REMOVE the restriction on Asian arowanas imports since they are not endangered species anymore!!!
Please come to Indonesian Super Red Arowana Contest especially in borneo island, the place where those fish came from😊
Amazing! It's also funny how us human like animals in the shape or form that would never survive in the wilderness😂
Super Red Arowana originally from West Kalimantan, Indonesia
LEGALIZE AROWANA
Agreed....foolish people making foolish decisions. There's no valid reason for the ban. Especially as the fish are captive bred and therefore not harming nature's balance or resources.
No
Agree but Asian arowana!
@@Apriliars I understand your point of view in so far as moderately priced fish are concerned, however even lesser quality Asian arowana will be too costly for a buyer to simply carelessly dispose of.
@@michaela-be4le until there not , they’ll be quickly breed n the culls chucked in the pond
Another pro of living in Canada for me is I can aquire these lol
I had a silver arowana named Groucho Marx and he'd play "fetch" with a ping pong ball
Waw Amazing ,
Wooww arwana super red Fromm Indonesia 🙏
wow
