This Fish is Called the arowana, this arowana is a 24k gold arowana.The arowana is from Indonasia. I do not have an arowana at home but i think arowana's are very beautiful. Arowana's are quite hard to find and are also quite pricy.
My second favourite fish is called the guppy! Here is a picture of it.

There are around 2-3 generations of guppies per year in the wild. Guppies are well developed and capable of independent existence without further parental care by the time they are born. Young guppies school together and perform anti-predator tactics. Brood size is extremely variable, yet there are some consistent differences among populations depending on the predation level and other factors.[3] Females of matching body sizes tend to produce more numerous but smaller-sized offspring in high predation conditions. Female guppies first produce offspring at 10–20 weeks of age, and they continue to reproduce until 20–34 months of age. Male guppies mature in 7 weeks or less.[3] Total lifespan of guppies in the wild varies greatly, but it is typically around 2 years.[13] Variations in such life historic characteristics of guppies are observed in different populations, indicating that different evolutionary pressures exist.Guppies are native to Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Brazil, Guyana, Jamaica, the Netherlands Antilles, Trinidad and Tobago, the U.S. Virgin Islands and Venezuela.[5][6] However, guppies have been introduced to many different countries on every continent except Antarctica. Sometimes this has occurred accidentally, but most often as a means of mosquito control. It was expected that the guppies would eat the mosquito larvae and help slow the spread of malaria, but in many cases, these guppies have had a negative impact on native fish populations.[7] Field studies reveal that guppies have colonized almost every freshwater body accessible to them in their natural ranges, especially in the streams located near the coastal fringes of mainland South America. Although not typically found there, guppies also have tolerance to brackish water and have colonized some brackish habitats.[3] They tend to be more abundant in smaller streams and pools than in large, deep, or fast flowing rivers.[8]

My third favourite fish is the oscar ,here is a picture of it!
A. ocellatus examples have been reported to grow to about 45 cm (18 in) in length and 1.6 kilograms (3.5 lb) in weight.[1] The wild-caught forms of the species are typically darkly coloured with yellow-ringed spots or ocelli on the caudal peduncle and on the dorsal fin.[5] These ocelli have been suggested to function to limit fin-nipping by piranha (Serrasalmus spp.), which co-occur with A. ocellatus in its natural environment.[7][9] The species is also able to rapidly alter its colouration, a trait which facilitates ritualised territorial and combat behaviours amongst conspecifics.[10] Juvenile oscars have a different colouration from adults, and are striped with white and orange wavy bands and have spotted heads.[7] Astronotus ocellatus is a species of fish from the cichlid family known under a variety of common names, includingoscar, tiger oscar, velvet cichlid, or marble cichlid.[1] In South America, where the species naturally resides, A. ocellatus specimens are often found for sale as a food fish in the local markets.[2][3] The fish can also be found in other areas, including China, Australia, and the United States. It is considered a popular aquarium fish in the U.S.[4][5][6]
