Do these aros exist? or photoshopped?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
They are real, I see them here. Different colour bases. I think purple and blue. Lights and a professional photographer go a long way to making the iridescent colours stand out in fish with colour bases.
Look at your own fish and you'll see those colours mixed in with others.
I don't know how they do it, as another poster said it must be selective breeding.
They're very expensive as well. More than chillies here.
 
Wow.. speechless.. :D
 
Neither of them are photoshopped or real. i blew them up on my image software trying to find the underlying layer that woulda been an original pick pre-photoshop but it was only one virtual layer. this is actually my expertise lol. what you got there are wonderfully done CGIs.

zoom them up yourself, they are nothing but wireframes and pixels.
 
Computer generated images? I don't think so, especially in the fist picture.
If a person was going to go to the trouble of creating an CGI of a fish, why would they include blur?
I've also seen fish that look like that here.
 
Nah, not fake. Blue Base Golden. Here is the pix of mine BB ... and i have crappy photo skills (point and shoot ... and hope it turns out) and no skills with photoshop.... still i manage to capture some of the blue/purple coloration.

PS: look in the media lounge. Koji has quite a few harvesting threads with BB in them

Search on youtube for blue base arowana... there are plenty of them on video ^^

im not. but lemme clear some things up.

- no i didn't make these pictures. but i have expencive photo software that can look through an image, it does thinks like count pixels and looks through the layers of a photo (if it was generated/edited). though i can't always reverse the picture to how it was, there are ways of telling if a photo is real or fake. or in this case CGI.

- I never said the species was fake, but the picture is. blurr isn't very hard to "go through the trouble of doing". lol and i think you can even see the pixel blend of a pasted arowana without software, if you zoom in on the picture you can see that it is a real background of a tank with a fake fish in it. you can see the pixel residue between the fish and the background. the fish was made with a single layer and is highly compressed and the background seems to be the same. meaning i don't think they are from the same picture. the backround is just a tank with an arowana put infront of it.

- your picture of the arowana is EXTREMELY different from the picture of question. as you can see it has shadow and no blended lines because it was part of the picture. every CGI pic, even well done ones will have sOME pixel "dust". this one has alot.

kind of like how aqua teen hunger force uses real background on cartoons. but a much more advanced level of illustration, design.
