Banjar Red Aro

[Idealconcepts]

I'm asking for a friend.

Whats the going rate or range for a Banjar Red Aro? It's about 16in long, with good barbells and a bright yellow and orange tail. It also has gill curl, so that's gonna affects the price a bit.

So whats a price or range of price for this guy?

Thanks in advance.

Not much and I say $300-$350 as it got gill curl even at 16". Most people will just get a smaller ones as it's a banjar red and grow it out. A banjar red with gill curl will most likely will not sell unless the gill curl can still be fixed. If not then just good luck! Even if the price is $500+ people will just get an RTG or SR.

Damn that was a quick response. Salamat

My understanding is gill curl at that size doesn't really affect the health of fish, is that correct?

It doesn't really affect the health but most people that buys aros care about the look of the fish. They like aros with 99% perfection especially with banjar that are not really a high end aro.b Considering aros will get up to 16" within a year or 2. They might just as well get a small one and if that aro doesn't have a gill curl and the price is around $500-$600 then they might just as well get a RTG or SR.

Your location also plays a part in price. Their availability in your area makes a difference IMO.

Just my .02

Is that taking into consideration gill curl? My friend and I are not super familar with Asian aro pricing. Can you give a range of price?

With gill curl, I'd say half of the normal price.
