So I finally took the dive and decided to get into this all the way. I have been keeping silvers for a while now to get my feet wet and I wanted something better and nicer. I found a BBXB at a fish store in Toronto and picked up this little guy!
His certificate is what worried me. The guy scanned the fish in front of me, I wrote down the tag number displayed on the device, and when he pulled out the certificate it was described as a 24K Golden Arowana, not a BBXB as the fish physically appears. In his broken english he tried to tell me that when the fish are young, they sometimes label the fish incorrectly. I tried googling the farm that is on the certificate, but the website appears out of date.
Either way I went ahead with it cause I liked the fish, and at the end of the day thats what really matters to me. So without further delay here are the pics!
The little guy is about 6-7 inches, and gobbles hikari sticks luckily.

by the way, beautiful illegal arowana for all of us in the USA to own.
