Blue Arowana

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
ok like i said it is not a species in itself just a geograpic morph of the black i guess all you guys can think that i am dumb but there is a small population of "black" aros that have a much more defined blue color to them... these fish are now illegal to export from their native waters because of the high demand for them they are not a species they are a morph aro i dont know how many times i have to try to explain myself but maybe you guys should realize that you dont know everything and neither do i but i only argue the points that i know to be true:swear: :swear: :swear: :swear: :swear: pricks:ROFL: :ROFL:
 
I'm not sure what you are arguing then...................
If I have a goldfish that is more gold than orange will it be worth more too?

the so called blue aros are just black aros that are not from brazil i think it may be columbia.
normal blacks do get some blue in them but these so called blues do tend to have a lot more blue on the fins.
it may not last in the aquarium though as it is probably down to the native water.
they are also not worth the extra money its a bit of a con imo selling for 3 times the cost


these blue aros that were imported from columbia are and shown in the PFK link were recently found when collectors were allowed back into an old fish collecting area after the problems with that area calmed down.
brazil stopped blacks from being exported and columbia dont and this is one of the reasons for the influx of these blue arowana.
i stated this on the first page and it is probably down to the water they live in that they get more blue but they are still a black arowana plain and simple.
sorry for quoting myselfit needed doing
 
a lfs has a large (around 20" long, 4 to 5 " up and down) "blue arrowana"( no drop eye!) it actually looks blue outlining the scales and the fins. i asked the owner about it and he said when black arrows get large they turn blue. it is not listed for sale but he said he would sell it for 250 to me.

at that size if it still has good blue color that black would be worth getting:D
