Are these "Snow" Arowana?

The shop owner said its cash and carry, they don't want to deal with shipping.

Here's a few pictures that show the same lighting conditions,camera, place
showing the white arowana vs the silvers.

I think its either a really nice silver thats not fully plat OR its bleached.

Just buy that aro! I would buy that kind of silver and add it to my aro collection. Silver are being mass and some of them are getting lighter or with a higher shine. They kinda underrated when it comes to other types of aros, that's why the breeder just don't even care to spot a nice looking silver.

The fish that I saw were whiter color than the very light silver
photo you posted. But not paper white, more like a pearl white.
If they would have been a pure flat paper white than I would have
bought them on the spot.

they are just regular aros...if they were platinums, they would have been very expencive...

The seller wanted 500USD each, she had small silvers for 5USD.
She had small flowerhorn (nice ones) 200 each, and Asian Arowana
1500 to 10,000 each.

wow! thats crazy! The reason I didn't think that they were platinums is because of the fact that they do have some pink/green coloring in one of the pics..
Also, usually to get the platinum aros, breeders inbreed them. Just like the white tiger, its a genetic mutation that is not very common in the wild.
