Are you trying to start a culture war between ASIANS and AUUSIES? In my opinion, the ASIANs have done a fine job of breeding superior fish. They're progressing the hobby in great strides. I might be wrong, but if you think I am, show me a fine AUSSIE specimen.

No Aussie aros can match the Asian aros, unless someone start selective breed some Aussie aros to develop other color variant etc etc.

Yes I agree......
Asians will always be favored over aussies, but for the money. My jar is just fine with me.

Aussie for more affordability and Asian for elegance.
I'd get both, but I lack a tank.

Too bad fish have to be inbred over several generations to accomplish this. There is a case for genetic diversity too. There is nothing wrong with fish that have wild coloration-they are superior since the odds of them having genetic defects are way lower.

haha very funny,you make me laugh :screwy: and true id get both

Saratoga is an Arowana. Aussie name for Arowana.

yeah also barramundi is aussie name for australian aros
Regardless. I'm a arowana lover and thus I have both. Both are just as dear to me. Only different is how much I spend getting them.

WRONG!!!
Barramundi (lates calcarifer) is not an arowana. It is a big perch. It is very similar to a nile perch.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it smarty pants! :D

Actually, Aussies do call arowanas Barramundi, they do the same for what you might call a Polka Dot Grouper.

YOUR STILL WRONG.
You said barramundi is an aussie name for arowana. It's not. From further research barramundi is a name used for a few fish but primarily Lates calcarifer like I said. I only find the arowana when I specifically search for 'spotted barramundi'.
Since your so good at researching you should search for just 'barramundi' and let me know how many pages you have to search through to find a picture of an arowana. :ROFL:

Just to throw it out there, I have a few aussie friends from a cichlid forum who all refer to aussie aros as barramundi. :)

No I agree. I just don't like people trying to make them selves look clever by mocking others.
Now I realise I'm argueing with a 14yr old I can't be bothered. You would expect as much from a child.

You can compare arowana from diff countries because each of them have something good about them..
e.g asian with color and Aussie with aggression and size
i would compare lei with Aussie and Asian vs Asian cause there are many varieties
p.s just checked with my aussie mate and jars are called spotted barramundi

I agree, both types of aros have their charm. I quite like both and i have both as well.

Regardless of age, we all learn from each other. If a person coming into this hobby at the age of 30 automatically make him better than a 15 year old who's been at it for 5 years? I don't see how he was mocking anyone, just pointed out a simple fact. And yes...I've heard the term Baramundi as a term for Australian Aros as well. Just because it's listed as "Spotted Baramundi" the name "Baramundi" is still synonymous with it.
Now as for the Asian Aro vs. Australian Aro thread, it doesn't matter as long as you like them.

you guys have koala bears, kangaroo's, and FRT's..those are fine AUSSIE specimens. :naughty:

Asian arowana is the king of all dragon fishes.
Some call it the king of all aquarium fishes that why is tag & have a cert to prove it species & bloodline .
It is a protect fish under CITES list till today even thought this fish is mass breed in asia.
Asian arowana is the 1st aquarium fish that was tag wt a micro chip no other dragon fishes can compare with asian dragon.
I love all breed of dragon fishes frm asian ,amazon ,africa, irian jaya & australia .
My favourite the giant arapaima gigas the gentle giant.:)

why is it all about the color, some of the reds and crossbacks I have seen are in bad physical proportions, and yes I have a beautiful jardini. I will post pics and video if allowed as soon as I get access to the site. I have been raising silver, black, and jardini for about 10 years now and I was hooked when I visited Singapore and saw one 6" super red go for $15,000. There were several for $10 - 12,000 as well but all were sold by the time I visited the shopping center.

To bad Jardini's only come in basically two colors, either the bronze/gold color or silverish color, but I think about 90% of them are the bronze/gold color. Another thing i've noticed about Jardini's compared to Asians Aros is that Jardini's do not get as thick as Asians.
