Price on asian arowana?

[Emil Wångdahl]

I live in sweden and i want 4-5 asians in my 10000 gallon aquarium that are soon to be in my cellar, i just got a price from a vendor saying 900 dollars each if i buy 4 or more... oteoherwise even more.
Is this a normal price for asians? i have never seen them in a store in sweden before

It depends on the type and quality of the arowanas.

This is from a vendor in the UK to give you an idea of types, grades and general costs associated with each one.

that's a lot for greens, here in the uk greens are about £120 so about $240 each. banja red go for £200 $400 and rtg start at about £400 $800 and go up too £2000+

Agreed I think you can do a lot better.

I find it hard to believe that anyone with the where-with-all to start up a 10,000 gallon home aquarium would balk at the price being asked for these aros.

ok. sorry that you find it hard to believe? or whatever you wanted with your unnecesarry attempt at calling me a liar. Aint it abitt childish of a moderator to throw around aqusations of people they dont know?

Not really. It could have been something as simple as a typo in the OP. However, your outburst does reflect a modicum of immaturity.
