[rob0521]

yea i thouhgt it was something else but just wanted to make sure

thw world record was just above 50 inches.

no 5 foot specimens have existed to date.

50" that's huge, Is this aro caught in the wild or tank raised?

i would love to see pics of a silver aro above 40inch

i chould say i have seen an aro of 60inch but without pics it means nothing

all i know is if i saw an aro as big as 48-50inch the 1st thing i would do is get my cam phone out (do phones come without cam now )

t1karmann... u must have not read any part of the original thread. this quote was takin straight from it:

The post was deleted where he stated the tank size is 75 gallons.

either way, i wanna know the full size of a silver aro myself. maybe one day we all will find out. whoever has one above 24", DO NOT GET RID OF IT LOL. we'll all post back in 10 - 20 years n see how big they are.

i practically just finished reading that in captivity they get around 2.5 feet, but in the wild they can get to 4 feet. but i have no experience with aros, so don't quote me.

I hear they get bigger than midgets.

Believe it or not, Milwaukee Zoo has a very large Silver. It has to be pushing 20 years old. One of the biggest I've ever seen in person.
