Lol! Look at the size of his hands! Finger tips are like kielbasas! I guess you need huge ass hands to be able to catch those monster Asians.

Flint town!
I'm not calling anyone out or going to try and single anyone out infer what you will. Some people like to push buttons and try to start stuff, devils advocate if you will. Others let their buttons get pushed and feathers ruffled by people who enjoy watch them twist. The only thing any of this does is pull attention away from the real issues at hand. Sooooo I'm thinking if people would stop talking between the lines and others stop reading between them we would be good and the real issue may get back in the spot light.
I think most of us agree big fish+ small tank =bad idea. I also think deep down we all know what is to small and what is to big.

Asian Aro’s cant really be compared to silvers (at least not here) because anyone willing to drop the money for a nice Asian Aro is bound to do a lot of research into their needs before blowing money like that unless they are literally swimming in cash... Where as anyone who walks into an LFS could quite easily afford their cheaper silver cousins...

For example I cant count the amount of times i’ve seen young people (10-18yrs old) here walk out an LFS with baby silvers and tiny plastic aquariums, but never have i seen a person younger than say around 25 walk away with an Asian aro just due to price alone...

I mean silvers here might cost around USD $5-10 a piece for a small 5” fish...

But a nice Asian Aro even at just 10” could cost upwards of USD $1K - 2K+

Idk bud. I wasnt disagreeing with the recommendations given. Shoot like i said i never kept an adult.

Makes sense though why they asian/aussie cant be compared since they arent as widely kept.

You know what they say about guys with freakishly large hands......
Big gloves ?
