Ya gotta agree here, laws of supply and demand. Opened US market would cause one heck of a demand. With a demand such as this I'm sure there would be much more black market activity, probably adding to the collection of wild speciemens. This would lead to the extinction of the wild asian aro.

I have never realized that US market has such huge demand for asian arowana! :ROFL:

people need to keep in mind, how the united states of america enjoys overdoing EVERYTHING compared to other countries. we overwelcome our amounts to anything possible. if we dont have it, we want it, if it aint available, we try anyway. if it is available, we buy more then we need or can even handle.

united states of america has more people then we need, with more people coming in daily. i know of probably hundres of people in california alone that want them if they don't already have them. we have 50 states across the country, with prolly just as many people as cali that want them if they dont already have them. even if only 100 people per state wanted ONLY 1, thats 5,000 fish minimum getting spread across the states. were much larger then canada, and we enjoy spending our money. i don't see a good couple thousand being sold quickly anything short of the truth. a future illegal breeding ponds, and more blackmarket sales being done.

im all for the idea tho, just a tad of my opinion of the possibilities.

Well, let's look at the ban on ray in Brazil was lifted recently. How much demand from the US market? :D Everyone wants, but not everyone will buy! :grinno:

Very true, price on these rays are way too high, same with these aros. Shouldn't be much of a problem if the ban was lifted. Prices on the aros would go up, and most of the people that wanted to buy them will not buy them.
 
Yes, I'd have atleast one in each of my tank's.

I wish we could make this happen.
