Is it just me or do wild caught silvers have longer barbels then non wild caught. From having 2 2ft+ silvers from 3in it seem to be true is it not.
 
yeah I kinda noticed that too.
 
possibly. plus the lack of dropeye and better coloration.
 
i heard since silver arowana are so inbreed and farmed raised, they are more likely to get a drop eye.

=1 it makes him who he is.
 
no wonder my silvers barbels are so long and its scales are shiny silver/white
