LFS has a Blue Arowana for $300.00. Kind of looks like a Black Aro but when it's under the lights you can see the blue in him kind of cool. Alot of money but if I didn't have my Jardini I would have to think about it. Anybody know anything about them? Are they hard to come by?

BTW I love my Jar truely a beautiful fish. :D

blue aro is another name for black aro. 300 is a bit extreme however for a black aro. I wouldn't pay that much for one

the so caled blue aros are just black aros that are not from brazil i think it may be columbia.
normal blacks do get some blue in them but these so called blues do tend to have a lot more blue on the fins.
it may not last in the aquarium though as it is probably down to the native water.
they are also not worth the extra money its a bit of a con imo selling for 3 times the cost

ok think i am wrong but i am not and i am not going to get into a huge debate about this was just trying to tell the truth and most "blues" that you see for sale are not the true blues just blacks they do exist but only in their native waters i am done with this thread and for a good size black $300 is not to bad of a price

Well I mostly see the blue on the scales and it's in his eyes too, a little bit in the fins, but it wouldn't surprise me this lfs always has been high with their prices.

Yeah it is probably just a regular black. Not really worth that much IMO.
