Sexing Asian Arowana Jabel Chiu

Some people will tell you that it is difficult to identify the sex of an Asian Arowana and that you won't know the sex until it either starts to lay eggs or mouth-broods the young. Is That Really True ?The answer is NO. For most species of animals on this planet, there are differences in appearance and physical traits that will tell the two sexes apart. For some species, the differences are obvious but for some others, and arowana is one of them, they are more subtle. Nonetheless, the differences are there. You just need to know where to look for them. This book, SEXING ASIAN AROWANA will give you eight visual criteria to identify the sex of any Asian arowana, young fry or adult alike, regardless of the color strains. Also given are 27 pictorial examples of arowanas for the readers to practice what they have learnt in identifying the sexes, with guidance and answers given. After reading this book, you will become an expert in this field in no time at all. Why, you may ask. Because it is easy to do if someone just tells you the clue, which very few people actually notice on this fish, and which you may never find out if nobody tells you.. Clue: The sex of this creature can be found written on its face, even when it is a fry! The stomach and vent area of an adult fish is also a giveaway, which is the eight sexing method I had added in, that is not in the earlier edition. This book will tell you the detail. I had changed this paperback book to color print. In the earlier version of this book, I had wrongly selected black and white print, which is not suitable for this visually technical book. My apology to earlier reader and buyer.
