Hi - I"m glad you like it.

Yes it is mine but I haven't been able to bring it to the USA as yet.
The paper work it's taking a little longer and she is growing very fast. I think I might have to sell it if it grows too much.

PM if anyone interested.

HUH, well ithink the gold luster is slowly fading when u consider how bright it was as a baby,hopefully there will still be some left as the fish matures, also lets hope for some red in the tail area , that is really what makes a pima sooooo unique.:popcorn:Tc
 
This is not a conventional Arapaima but a rare Golden one.
It should remain Golden :) otherwise it wouldn't be rare.
 
try getting the exporter to house it in a black tank for a couple of days to show it is true gold arapaima.

This pc may be the result from white tank treatment.
