1. Different scales: The biggest difference between over-backed Arowana and high-backed Arowana is their scales. The bead scales of over-backed Arowana can reach 6 rows, and the whole scales of over-backed Arowana have heavy metallic texture.

2. Can the over-backed Arowana and the high-backed Arowana be raised together

It is not recommended to raise the over-backed Arowana together with the high-backed Arowana, because first of all, they are relatively large in size, and it is difficult for normal fish tanks to meet their required activity space. Secondly, they are fierce in character and have a strong sense of territory, so they may have conflicts when they are raised together. Finally, they grab food seriously. If they don't feed enough food, there may be fights.
