Default Hunting for Green Arowana

Hi everyone, Keen to start with a green arowana since I do not have any experience in keeping arowana and is much more cheaper ma =P.
and currently still a student so abit budget . Back to mainpoint.. Saw some at c328. But i don't really know which to bag home. Need some little help for choosing.
Getting maybe on this coming wednesday? Any bro is dropping by at c328 around noon time? Hopefully can meet up and gain knowledge from you

see the following (non exhaustive):
- body posture (body shld be straight when swimming, not slanted up or downwards; back shld not be out of the water)
- finnage (big tail, long pectoral fins)
- barbels (straight and sym, pointing upwards)
- eyes (clear, not cloudy)
- overall no visible physical injury
- responsive to you (but pls do not knock on the glass, just wave ur hand in front of tank)
most impt: u see fish, u like the fish.

wed noon im cant make it. gd luck for ur hunt and happy aro keeping

A quick question or 2. Is your tank cycled? And mind sharing the sizes of the Greens you saw at Auntie's?
