Native to Southeast Asia, Asian arowanas inhabit blackwater rivers, slow-moving waters flowing through forested swamps and wetlands. Adults feed on other fish, while juveniles feed on insects. These popular aquarium fish have special cultural significance in areas influenced by Chinese culture. The name dragon fish stems from their resemblance to the Chinese dragon. This popularity has had both positive and negative effects on their status as endangered species. (SINCE OCTOBER, 2008)

My Orchid Collection - Wild Plants from Serikin

On my way back from Serikin, I have the chance to buy some of the interesting wild plants at a kampong at Serikin, Sarawak...

4 species in one pot, they cost me only RM30.00..

This two similar species are male and female (As told to me by the local). The green color is female and the other one is male.... For me the male is look more attractive than the female...

Anyway, this one is definitely a male...
