That fish is slightly older than yours. Your fish will look like that in 2 Months time
After 3 Months yours will look like a normal silver.
The red color will disappear as it ages.
Your Aro eyes not black also.. We need to compare apple with apple..
Bro.. Why you keep referring to my snow? Cant get it off your mind ?
Point 1 ...i said axanthic silver is not new.. Supported with pics..
Point 2 ... After seeing the latest photo update. I said 3 months time this piece will look like normal silver.. It's axanthism not extreme type...
That's all I said.. I am not against anyone.. Just discussing on the fish...
Hi Wes.. You have photo to show how pink is your pink!?
Some of the albino selling here eyes sure look pink.. esp those full yellow type
Bro.. Come Down to Singapore.. If Want awesome yellow body with pinK eye.. I just saw a few in our fish shop.. They cost around USD 400. 2 years ago they were selling at USD 2k.
I will show u around.
I keep referring to your snow because I'm giving my opinion on what a quality fish should look like. Your snow is deformed- they eyes are popped out like a frog and the shape is not right- I would never buy one.
And there you go again- you are saying this arro will turn regular but you have no proof. You are just speculating. You have never kept one before and thus you have no idea what it will look like. Just shooting air out of your mouth with nothing to back it up.
When your snow was small did it have the ugly frog eyes or did they grow like that with age?

Wes, how big are the platinum blk arowana you're offered? Tiny? Bro Fong, all I can say is that I think it will be different when it grows up, not a normal looking silver arowana. Looking too different now to just be plain later on.
this is how it works, they find them as early as yolk sac fry, and alert me with them. they also know how much they're selling for in Asia now, so they want thousands of dollars per fish, so I start negotiating with them. As this goes on, the fish gets a bit bigger or skinnier and worse in condition. and at the same time they will offer this to Asian market, and once the timing is right, and price is right it will strike, and be sold. I got the message a week ago, but it could be gone by now. I rather get them a bit bigger, when they're 2" with yolk and $1800 each or more its really risky, even if its $1000 each. These opportunities present themselves a few times a year, I don't think they realize how many albino silvers they're breeding in Asia, etc...
I figured that they would be way high. Personally I don't mind having your plain ol' common blk arowana. I don't have to distance myself from the other fishkeepers to feel like I have a special fish. Small black arowana are special enough for me. Sign me up for 2-3 of the black arowana that are just done absorbing their eggsac or have a little bit left. I'm more than good with those guys. They're special enough for just plain ol' nothing to prove me. Thanks
