[jlnguyen74]

I wont forward that link. Just be mindful what you say in the internet . I dont think it is right To forward to that link. After all it is just a friendly discussion.

Albino and axanthic... That piece was sold as axanthic.

Oh come on! You fold already? And right! That piece was sold as axanthic! Keep digging, bro Fong! You see them quite often, yet you can't find one

Aren't you guys bored yet? Seriously, get a life.

Geez! You're boring! You need a life!

I went to Petsmart and ordered my Xanthic silver. They just ran out. They said they have to place an order with the farm in Colombia but they assured me they have thousands in stock over there. Anyone want to do a group buy?

1) Your link has not prove captive breeding of silver arowana, bro Fong. It only shows a picture of 2 guys standing in a field, no harvesting/collecting fry from pond.
2) Arowana is listed as endangered in 2006, but it has been on CITES long before 2006. Go and read those links you posted again bro Fong
You're right on one thing, though. You should be so embarrassed by now.

1. Maybe it doesn't have to be closed, so we can keep this going but in a more positive manner, let me re-direct
2. Bro Fong, you have some experience in keeping arowana, but you came off offensive when you said that the fish is common and not worth keeping, when in fact you could not produce pictures of the same fish that you claim to be common. If your criteria is a white fish that is ok, but do no be little other people's fish, this thread was started to show off a fish we got and found it was interesting. If you say yellow ones are common or not worth keeping, I cannot find too many pictures of those either.

3. Tk1- again you came off offensive as well, in the past update you said the owner used a Nan light to enhance and show off the colors, but it wasn't, and you were not only not apologetic, but you started to say these fish are probably captive bred and not worth keeping. Well, I can tell you that your black rays are common, they kill them in the rivers where they're found, but I don't say that, its called basic decency. Unfortunately you keep arguing and being ornery.

4. as for captive breeding, like I said, I know that Asian arowanas have been bred for some 20 years plus now, but also its because Asian arowanas have always commanded hundreds up to thousands of dollars each, even in Asia for at least 20 years, so there was a lot of money involved. As for silver arowanas, historically they were always a 5-10 dollar each fish at a small size, so that is why no effort was ever made to mass produce them. In the past they actually just kill the adults for food and take the babies. also its not easy to transport an adult with the limited equipment they have to a breeding station. it would be difficult. I'm sure there are some efforts being made to breed them, but its not done regularly yet, and we're not seeing the results yet.

This is the closest thing to actual evidence-

The above link... The seller is Simon.. A reputable farm owner ...he sold as axanthic.. All the scales are translucent leading to yellowish color.. That's why it's called axanthic.. Understand?

NO! NO! NO! Ready again! He sold it as xanthic, NOT axanthic! In his own words, "Xantic is yellow banana colour and albino is slight whitish.." Xanthic is yellow... Axanthic is lack of yellow or red or both... UNDERSTAND??? You still don't get the difference that Koltsixx tried to explained it to you month ago... You've been digging blind, found one fish that you thought as another one... Keep on digging!

You have people defending this fish like it's them who dropped big $$$$ on it

I have no idea why

Caught you!!! He He. Thought you will never say that.

You are right:
axanthic : lacking yellow pigement
Xanthic : tending towards yellow color.

So why you claim the fish on discussion as axanthic? Should it be xanthic ? Lol. So yellow.

Caught me? You are a FUNNY guy, Kelvin Fong! You can't even own up to your clueless! So yellow? Just a few pages back 1hottuna post an update pix, and you found it's interesting with the transformation. You keep saying the fish in the link you posted sold as axanthic, although the title of the video and the seller said it is xanthic, and you have no clue the difference until I took you back to first grade and spell it out for you! You caught nothing!

why are you such a hater? Why can't you accept the fact that other people can get nice fish as well. I've never said this was the ultimate rare fish in the world. its just a nice new fish for me and the hobby here in the US, that's it. Maybe there are hundreds in the world, or thousands, but why can't you let other people enjoy their fish without saying something negative.

There maybe hundreds of aros like this around but most go to Japan China Hong Kong Taiwan all country's that never post what they have on the Internet
The truth of the matter is if this fish was as good as you say it would have gone to Asia as they would have paid a lot more than Europe or the U.S. but the truth is they didn't want it that's why it landed in the U.S. no other reason

Yes my black rays are not rare at all but I can say I bred them my self and most of my rays was born in my tank by me
