Are asian aros still banned in Aus?
What's the black market price for the RTGs?

All aros sold in Aus are more than likely all black market fish.
Their illegal to import but not illegal to own.
RTG's, Super Reds can start at $4000 and upwards.
Good quality X-backs (blue base etc) would be around the same price aswell.

The cheapest Arowanas here would be the Silver, Green and Australian (Jardini and Leichardti).

Silvers going for $400-$500
Green for $700 - $1000
Jardinis & Leichardtis - $80

Now how bad is that :irked:
 
that is one hell of a pirce i would like to know what they run in the US (the asians) i know there is someone that sells em even thou they are not suposed to (duh blakcmarket) but i think u can get asians in CAN. correct me if i'm worng on that one
 
The setup look good.

Are you using whte lights alone in there? How about trying out an addition od a pinkish looking light tube in there as well. The blend can bring out the look better.;)

Im currently using 2 x 80w T5 Lights.
I was reading on here about those Nan lights.. wonder if i could get them here??

My background is Black (DIY)
Black gravel/pebbles and 3 pieces of drift wood, thats all. I want to maximise swimming space for the fish.

wow.
big tank.
nice aro.
hes 2 yrs old but only 45 cm?

Ok maybe hes not 2yrs old then cause the guy i bought him off (couple months back) just guessed his age and told me "looks" around 2yrs old.
How old are Silvers generally around this size?
