Arowana As Dish

Yech! I never thought of aros being that full of meat despite me being an Asian.

it sounds morally wrong to us because we keep aro as pets ,but people in asia grow em as food fish, so i guess its food not pets for em... cant blame em, aros grow fast , easy to farm....

I am not aware of any farm in Asia that grow aros for food. There are Asian Aro farms - but these are not for food. There are farms for silver aros (i believe), but not for food either - wayyyyy more valueable as a pet than food

PS: i believe the aros have a lot of bones so not that good to eat - now bara is something else

I think they are farmed. I don't think that they will fish for WC sivers in South America to ship it to Asia when there are so many farms in Asia.

Its wasn't all the surprising to me though. There was a thread (not in this section) aout a guy who owned an arapaima farm and he used to eat his own farmed arapaima and PLECOS. Yes his own pleco. Ill try to dig up the thread. Im sure its still active.

They sell dead silvers in the seafood/fish department in Mexico, just another food fish.
