ongoing fish farm fire sales in XB

Actually may still be a win-win for all. Hobbyists get to keep more comm arowana and farmers can sell more volume. But i think it is gonna go much lower because sg land size is very small compared to malaysia. They can ramp up volume greatly there and it looks like they r doing so.

Many of the so call cheap xb nowadays don't really have standard. High shine yes but intensity wise is far lacking. Some xbs even looks like hybrid aro. Don't be taken in by the cheap pricings.

If you drive along Malaysia North-South Highway, you will see arowana farms stretching along highway near Bukit Merah...

I still believe that good quality will come with good pricing. In fact, quite difficult to find nowadays unless u have good linkage with the farm owner.

I felt hurt reading this...... I have a normal RTG..... only 4th row shine..... and I bought it because it is cheap (or cheaper)......

hi bro,
no need to feel hurt as we must always buy within our budget or what we can afford. (without saying, everyone would always loves to own those good range aro)
aro keeping is a hobby for u to enjoy but not for u to stress your $$$ pocket.
as long u like and enjoy the aro that u selected, it will be good.
me also under this category (tight budget type)!
happy aro keeping!

Aro is a special fish that exhibits a certain "personality" or "character" .. for those who have found this "connection" with the fish .. it does not matter whether your fish is a RTG, XB or Red .. this "connection" is priceless : )
