Thanks for posting the link. I would breed Asian Arowanas if I had an Arowana Farm in an appropriate climate. I wonder why they are trying to breed Silvers instead of Asian Arowanas though? Asian Arowanas would be much more profitable and more in demand. Silvers are every where here in the USA. For a business choice here in the USA Silvers would not be a wise choice start a business with.

Yes you are right, silvers arent that much profitable.
We can get a silver for $4 to $5 (small one) at retailers.
As far as I know asians are very hard to breed outside Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia.
I guess asian aros are very choosy on water quality, climate etc etc
Some farms in India have tried breeding asians and werent successful.

With India's advances in technologies it would seem India should be capable. It surprises me that you would give up that fast on such a profitable enterprise. I would stay with that en-devour as land is at a premium in the rest of South East Asia. Especially when considering growing populations, agriculture and forest conservation.

If Indian farms start breeding asian aros, then the prices will come down by a big margin.

Not necessarily, if South East Asia makes a couple of river preserves and the USA goes through the motions and legalizes Asian Arownana even Indian Asian Arowana farms would be busy and could justify a healthy price tags. I still think Asian Arowanas could become even more popular outside Asian markets much more than they already are.
Are You sure? I know there have been plans but no attempt..Some farms in India have tried breeding asians and werent successful.
Also the first video of silver breeding was luck,The person dint set up a breeding environment also he dint expect it too

Im sure atleast two farms tried with greens but not successful.
Arowana breeding was also tried out in one fish farm in Srilanka (eventhough srilanka as a tropical climate) but it was a failure.

Many people in India call Arowana to be Vaasthu or goodluck fish.
Arowanas are very popular here, but most of the people wont go for an asian because of the expensive price tag.
People here (most of them) dont want to spend so much on a fish.
So they settle for a silver, australian or green mostly.
Remember China and India are the largest markets in the world. So more customers.
So if Indian farms began to breed asian aros, to increase the local sales they have to bring the prices down in India.
In international market to get well established they should give quality fishes for very good competitive prices.
But quality is not something you can achieve in a short term, even if Indian farms breed asian aros its hard to compete with countries like Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia interms of quality initially.
So reducing the prices will be a good option to compete in international market.
When there is more output, the demand comes down and hence the prices comes down.
