I've seen them for sale several times here but I have been told the commonly sold 'argus' is actually a Channa argus x Channa maculata hybrid I saw one recently which was about 15" at my lfs that's the biggest specimen i've seen I think these doesn't grow as big as the pure argus.Pure argus go for big $$ here.Sorry if it wasn't much help
