ally07 Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 If you're going to spend $5K you might as well save up a little bit more and get something more exotic. How about a blue-base crossback gold? Those are absolutely stunning, but I don't know if they can be brought in/ how much they would cost. But, one can dream!

henward Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 yeah, there is no end though you gotta set a budget and stick to it. you can always spend more. like a car! that website is a good place to start he brings in top notch animals - expensive but great specimens. xback is gonna set you back a bit. for the cheapest last time i checked was 4k to 5k. thats a reasonable price to bay for a good quality one. do you have experience with arowanas? or is this going to be your first cos if it is, i suggest to start with something cheaper, get the filtration going, your knowledge and stuff, then get one.

henward Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 i think like reds, in a brood of xbacks some will come out mixed with difference base colours, doesnt always mean one is more expensive than the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruju Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 If your gonna go expensive, go red.

henward Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 yes, true that! 8) i even considered selling everything i had, minus some selected specimens to fund just one high grade aro and i realised, i still wont have enough money or just enough lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruju Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 Sell me your dels, they look crap anyways :dunno: :lol: worth a try haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally07 Posted April 17, 2011 Report Share Posted April 17, 2011 I think if I ever did (hopefully!) invest in a really high-end aro, I would get a tank similar to David R's - shallow but bigger footprint. That way, you can really see the fish swim around properly without stopping for a glass wall. I reckon aros look best when they are swimming horizontally, much more majestic. But someone once told me that when you're shopping for an aro, look at the way it swims vertically - it should look like a smooth airplane landing..

henward Posted April 18, 2011 Report Share Posted April 18, 2011 to me its appetite and aggression. the more agro the aro and hungry means its got a healthy disposition. age too. small when young so not stunted. i want a high grade red!
