Thank you all. I was thinking of buying it, but when I saw other photos of more red and spoon head, I changed my mind. This one is orange and also expensive.

Looks wise I guess people have their preferences but price wise it plays a lot to where you live. I think it's best to not compare prices here in an international forum and instead compare prices locally. I can tell you that if you compare the prices to somewhere like Indonesia you'll fell scammed and either never buy the fish or regret buying it.

is it easy to keep?

If you have to ask, then you should not get it.

It gets big and needs an enormous tank. It is a difficult eater, and may only eat live food. It jumps. It may not tolerate tank mates.

If you like arowana (I do), then do not get the first one. Look at many and learn a lot.
