Thanks I noticed you have a Silver arowana, the saratoga is part of the arowana family.
heres a family chart

It's scientific name is "Scleropages Jardini"

Their characteristics are very similar too the Silver aro but they are way more aggresive and are known to kill all tankmates without warning but there alot more skittish than the silver aro. They normally max out at around 25" in an Aquarium.

I meant what makes it a saratoga and not a Austrailian. I guess the Aus is the "normal" jardini?

I also just got a black aro.
