buddy, that pic can be taken anywhere from the net... i know those are asians, i'm from canada and own them hahaha

I highly suspect that the pic was stolen from the net. The fish are VERY young. In my opinion way too young to be microtagged. In that pic, they are most likely still at the farm. We do not get fish that small here in Canada, at least here in Toronto anyways. I'm familiar with most sources on the east side.

Dear all, just my 2 cents worth. firstly, Arowanas can only be tagged when they are 6 inches and from my understanding most asian arowanas come in from Singapore. Being a Singaporean and a serious hobbyist, I realise it is very hard to differentiate between Super reds and 1.5 reds at a young age as most of them have the same charactor traits most of the time. Also, the price of 999 USD is too cheap as it is close to distributor pricing so its quite unlikely

5 inches is the smallest i've seen tagged... it's legit too cause the number comes up with a chip scanner that matches the certificate. It's true that SR and 1.5 are difficult to differentiate at such a small size.

The seller has no feedback at all. I agree, it looks like a scam.
