Hi i am new to Arowanas and i am thinking about getting one but i dont know where to get them in the US? I heard something about certain ones being illegal? I can find silver ones but I want one of the unique looking ones, any help to where i can purchase one in the US? Thanks!

Asian aro's are banned in the US so its silvers , blacks or jardini and lei's available, still great looking arowana though :)

Wetspottropicalfish.com gets them in occasionally and their stock has always been healthy when I have ordered from them.

Been looking for a Lei since mine bit the dust...I guess I'll have to wait for next season as availability is non-existent.

Matt, although I think you've got some choices for other legal options from the provided sites :)

Wait anyone know if the Red tail Golden Arowana is considered asian, or one of the illegal ones? That one may be my favorite. I feel like the Red aro's (even tho illegal to get anyways) are only red under pink/red lighting??
