Animal Crossing

Animal Crossing: Wild World

"I've never heard of a dish made with arowana... However, I find it hard to believe they're inedible. People eat ANYTHING. Still, they're probably more profitable to sell for viewing than for eating."

Animal Crossing: City Folk

"It's said that arowana have retained the same appearance for nearly 100 million years! That's far longer than people or owls have been around... Hoo, the sights they must have seen... There's a bit of mystery about them, is there not? A fitting appearance for the king of tropical fish!"

Trivia

• Along with the Arapaima, Napoleonfish, and Blue Marlin, the Napoleonfish is the second highest selling fish all selling for 10,000 bells, behind the Coelacanth, Dorado, Shark, and Stringfish who all sell for 15,000 bells.

Real Life

The Arowana is a freshwater fish that has a strangely long body. In real life feng shui the Arowana is believed to bring good luck. It is thought that the response of the Arowana to a visitor will tell you whether the visitor is either an enemy or a friend.
