Yeah I've been doing a little more research, I think it might be possible to have some sent over from one of the farms in Malaysia if you arranged all the paper work, as Anne outlined, but its a lot of mucking around and the farm I was looking at will only ship a minimum of 12 fish.

I think you would have to be very keen to get one, be a dealer or get few friends together and import them between you and maybe sell a few of the extras. I'm not even sure that is legal? :(

I think I'll settle for another Jardini. I like Aust natives anyway! :)

Love your Leichardti Steve_89 :thumbsup:

an asian aro besaides green or yellow will cost 3k plus at least and thats a 3-5incher.....

in the U.S. a 5 in red goes for 4-5k
these prices are easily 2-3 times more than what we pay for them.

furthermore there is no guarantee that the aros are of the breed you want.

Yeah, i have always wanted an arowana/saratoga.
They would be awesome with barra, how did they go together any tension?
The Aussie ones are a little more "drab" than the Asian ones but they still look cool....OH so do Archer fish!
