Mounting fish

[Greg31]

So my jardini arowana broke his back last night and I had to euthenize him today. I am entertaining the thought of getting him mounted.

He was only about 11-12 inches big. How much do you think it would cost to mount a fish like him?

Around here in L.A to get like a lmb mounted its like 180$ think, the price of driftwood it'll be mounted to, also the preparation and stuffing so it's not to bad a cost

here in north florida its around $10 an inch for just the fish and more depending if you want a piece of drift wood or something.

usually fish mounting price is about $9-$15 per inch of fish depending on size of fish. 11-12" fish would be around $10 per inch (i am from Illinois prices may vary from state to state)

I would just want the fish mounted. Verry basic. I will check it out. Anything else I should do to preserve him? I have him in freezer now.

wrap him in a paper towl or something like that make sure his fins are are not bunched up or wrinkled try to keep the fins spread apart and keep him in the freezer
