Protective role of Arapaima gigas fish scales: Structure and mechanical behavior

Acta Biomaterialia, 2014
The scales of the arapaima (Arapaima gigas), one of the largest freshwater fish in the world, can serve as inspiration for the design of flexible dermal armor. Each scale is composed of two layers: a laminate composite of parallel collagen fibrils and a hard, highly mineralized surface layer.

Ostracoda impairs growth and survival of Arapaima gigas larvae

Aquaculture, 2019
Abstract The practice of indoor larviculture can be an alternative to enhance the rearing of arapaima larvae, improving their survival and the supply of arapaima juveniles for the grow-out stage. We aimed to evaluate different live microcrustaceans as feed for arapaima larvae to verify groups that can be safely used in laboratory trials, as well as ...

Aspiratory respiration in Arapaima gigas (Teleostei, Osteoglossomorpha): A reappraisal

Journal of Zoology, 1984
Recently it has been hypothesized that the osteoglossoid fish Arapaima gigas is unique amongst air‐breathing bony fishes in that it ventilates its respiratory swimbladder by aspiration. Aspiration, it was suggested, is effected by a diaphragm‐like septum lying below the swimbladder, and activated through lateral movement of the ribs.By using both high ...
