About African Arowana
The African arowana or Nile arowana is a species of bonytongue. Despite being called an "arowana", the African arowana is more closely related to arapaimas, the only other members in the family Arapaimidae, than the South American, Asian, and Australian arowanas in the family Osteoglossidae.
