Hey guys I know asian arowana are illegal in America however I am wondering is this websitehttp://www.premiumarowanashop.com/ legitimate or a scam? I am new to the arowana world so I am here to get the experts opinion. I know there are asian arowana breeders here in usa. I emailed them and they said they ship from Massachusetts. Please let me know your opinion if they can be trusted or not. Thanks ahead!

I do not know of any breeders. I'm just assuming there are some here since he said they ship from the states.

Scam scam scam scam. You will not find a Asian arowana breeder here in the states because there are none. Very rarely you'll have a few collectors in the states that might have some and they might spawn but I doubt they'll be very public/open about that since owning an Asian Aro is illegal anywhere in the US. Any ads, post, CL, website you see stating they have Asian aro in the U.S is typical scam full of **** or a sting. Not worth the risk. Better off knowing someone or just getting a Jardini.

If u can’t see the aro in person and have them bag it up in front of you it’s a scam. Everyone advertising asian Aro in america is a scam. Anyone trying to tell you they’re overseas and will ship it to you is a scam.

If you want an asian Aro no matter where your from your gonna have to look into the black market. Not easy to find, not cheap, and when you get it best not to show it off too much.

lol lucky i live in canada :) there was an owner of a lfs here in ontario that got caught selling to states a few years back. those prices are pretty cheap too considering they're pawning them off as "show grade". i mean super reds for 300? even if it was usd that would be a deal and our dollar is **** right now
