Price for 20-24" silver aro's?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Here on the big island of hawaii, you cant even find anything but w/egg sack or just dropped egg sack at $30. Pretty sad but there is only one LFS here and its not a big one. At least they sell 6 inch CK's for $20.....One of the regrets of moving to this island.:( Not too many choices and usually are gone before you get there.:(.....I usually go to the LFS every Thursday afternoon, that when they get shipments. Today it was archer fish and all 6 were on hold, WTF. I would have bought all 6, anyhow....my buddy owns the store and held two for himself but gave one to me for $15.....Hawaii sucks when it comes down to FW fish but saltwater on the other hand (not into it) you can get for free.:D
 
Paid $75 for both of my arows around the 24" size.

I'm amazed how silver aros catch quite a price tag in your countries, probably because of some laws regarding importation of arowanas. Anyway, here in the philippines, silvers are being bred in backyards so a lot of breeders fill up the LFS with hundreds of baby silver aros and so price go down as low as $3 each, no joke.


Are silvers really being bred in "backyards" 8Mile? Is it already comparable to asian's?
Around here, its either cheap because some guy can't keep a grown aro, or around 350 in a LFS...
