As it states in the title. I have an arowana that is just too big for my tank I need to let him go. I have a 150 gallon tank. I would like for someone with a 300+ gallon tank to have him. He is about 2 1/2 feet long 7" in height and 3 1/2" wide. I live in Northeast Connecticut and pick up is the only way that I can let him go. I originally wanted to give him to an aquarium but since they have never gotten back to me I will offer him up for sale. I'm not looking for much at all, maybe 100$. Feel free to make an offer eitherway because if there is no takers or what not I will give him to someone that can accomadate his size. I figured I would post this up here because I want someone that is expeirenced in fish keeping to have him. He is a very nice fish, he will let you pet him when he is full. Haha he tried to eat my hand once when I reached into the tank to grab something. He gets along well with my other fish and is not mean at all. He eats shrimp catfish smelt and feeders. He loves the shrimp though. He has choked down a mouse also. He does have a lot of drop eye on both sides but does very well anyways. Email me with any questions if you want as for I dont come on the forum that often thanks Jeff

bump, thanks for looking out on the first bump dmopar I didn't realize this section went so fast. It's kind of upsetting that no one is jumping all over this fish. I know if I had a big enough tank I would kill for a fish like my guy....
 
i would take him for my 400, i am in ny tho ? bump 4 a good deal
 
wow, if you have a picture of the fish, I would love to see what this massive fish look like.
 
how far r u from nyc
 
just to help eventual travellers, would have you know that I have transported an enormous arowana for more than 2 thousand kilometers ( nearly 1500 miles givo or take ).

it is doable, with some preparation.. there are threads about long distance transportation in MFK

G Luck!
 
So the last guy has backed out because he didn't want to drive out here. So He is still up for grabs. Some one help me out here. I don't want to let this guy go to a lfs and have him get treated like crap and sold to someone without a big enough tank.
