All kinds of dats Indo, Thin bar, Wide bar, SB paroon, albino ID catfish, albino senegal bichir, endlicheri bichir, arowana(of course), pearl sting ray, flower sting ray, leopoldi(or henlei?) ray, tigrinus catfish, albino red oscar, if I remember.. I think even at that list I forgot a bichir or two in there.. lol

I have that tank on my TFH calender MFK ad hanging up 24/7.. Although it shows it with a different setup.
 
thats an expensive setup, for sure.

common or not depends on where you are. in the US, not common because they are illegal. elsewhere where they're legal, they are common enough.

price depends on the grade. a super red (i.e. high grade) can easily cost 4-digit USD. i think average is somewhere around $1500 for 6"-8". exceptional specimens or larger specimens can easily cost twice that. an example of a super red is the one in the video.

another expensive variety of the asian arowana is the crossback golden. they cost on average as much as or more than super red.
