How big is it? Still looks like a juvenile from the pics. The scales should develop a nice pearl appearance over time.

you wont get much colour from a green im not being funny but you get what you pay for with asian aros and a greens price reflects that

I know,But some tips on how to make it look a bit better...Maybe darker plain silver will be hard to sell...

Wow interesting. it does look colourless from the pictures. What type of lighting are you using? What type of feeds have you been giving it? You got it at that size or did you rear it from baby?

It does look what they look like.

I find it a beautifull arowana. You can't go wrong qith greens personality wise.

Aend her over to someone who cherishes her and is not just looking for colour.

use a darker background

to tell the truth greens are much nicer than a banjar 1.5 red

larger aro sell for less than smaller ones in the UK a green would sell for about £120

as long as its healthy with no drop eye you shouldnt have any problems selling it

sell it for what you want price wise you must have been happy with the price you paid so someone else will feel the same

if you are hunting for the perfect aro you will be buying and selling a lot of aros like most of us in the asian aro group if you are worried about losiing money on a green its best you dont move on to higher end aros

as miguel said most greens look like yours

Darker background, good food and water, and perhaps some better light on the tank (not suggesting 'tanning' it, just more light to improve the quality of the photos).

I think the light from the window is killing his color. He does look skinny for 15" though but thats just me.
