The arapaima, piracucu, pirarucu, or paiche (Arapaima gigas) is a South American tropical freshwater fish. It is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's largest freshwater fish, reportedly with a maximum length in excess of 3 m (9.8 ft.) and weight up to 200 kg (440 lb.), although these reports have been disputed. As one of the most sought after food fish species in South America, it is often captured by spearing for export, and, consequently, large arapaima of more than 2 m are seldom found today.
