Aru Chondros
White, green, and blue, most chondro lovers melt at the site of a high-white Aru. If I could only breed the high-white phenotype true! Unfortunately, the high-white of wild caught Arus rarely translates to their CB offspring. Map of Aru Island. We are currently working with a small group of pure captive bred arus and hope to produce more in a few years.
