The Acara, formerly known by some as the Tigren, is a medium sized Neopet that is known for its distinct and large-sized ears, paws and floppy horns. Its thick yet short fur, which can be customized in all kinds of different colors makes this species perfect for both land and underwater exploring. In fact, the Acara’s skills in water are most notable in the Neopian observation of the Acara Aquatic Festival!
Besides the traditional Acara, these Neopets can also be transformed into rarer versions with some of Neopia’s magical items like potions or paint brushes. There are a number of different and unique Acara items available around Neopia’s many shops, including books, plushies, potions and more!
The Acara is a furry Neopet and a quadruped (meaning it walks on four feet, in this case the Acara's characteristic pink paws). Its most striking feature is its double-sized, shell-like ears, but you can also easily recognise an Acara by the long horns on the back of its head.

The Acara is a species of Neopet that loves to live by the sea. They are amphibious - they can breath in water or on land - although having fur like mammals. They have two horn-like protrusions on their heads that allow them to hear well underwater, and their thick coat of fur keeps them warm.
Its name may come from two species of cichlids - a family of freshwater fish - the blue acara and the zebra acara.
Acaras are typically fantastic swimmers who enjoy diving for treasure. In the Neopets Trading Card Game, they are associated with the element of water.
Old designs[edit]

The Acara was originally introduced as the Tigren on 28 April 2000. It was renamed to the Acara on 19 July, at the same time the Polypup became the Gelert, and it was at this point that its design received the 'horns' brushed back over its head. The Tigren's formerly large, bushy tail also shrank considerably and may have even vanished altogether.
