You do know how the cert and tags work right

A lot of the very high grade aros are tag/chipped and place in display tanks at farms for people who want to paid big but that's the bit of the show room you see sometimes that's kitted out with leather chairs

The you get your Rtg and low grade reds and backs which work in a different way they have big vats full of this type of aro which are just about of export size which is 6inch but in most cases more like 4-5inch
With the lower grade stuff they are chipped/tagged to order
In other words it works like this
The farm gets a order in from Canada or the UK for say 20 reds and 20 rtg the boss then tells his man I want 20 rtg and 20 red ready to be shipped out
The man goes to the vat of red and pulls one aro out then chips and keeps going until he has 20 red he then does the same with 20 rtg
This is why you get any lower grade aro that maybe 6 inch but the cert date is 1 week old that's why if you go into a shop and they have a few rtg in the cert number chip numbers with most likely run in order like xxxxx001 xxxxx003 and so on



i agree, i just say give or take on the dates of the tagging.. i just want to tell you i have my aro for a while too.. of course i don't have a tank like yours or some members here.. i do like to upgrade to a larger size tank.. one problem is that i can not fit it down my basement door which is only 6' x 30" wide.. i have look and consider lots of options... anyhow thankZ for sharing your photo.. if you want to check mine here is the link.. of course please give comments..

So you are trying to modest when you say not the nicest red on the market. He's great.
