I remember when my uncle had an arowana and he had a huge tank for it. It was so fascinating to look at. My uncle used to have two but the stronger, bigger arowana killed it’s own brother. My uncle had that fish for about three months or so, and it was healthy and big. My auntie who was living in the same house as my uncle heard a loud thumping noise, like there was something bumping onto the floor rapidly one night. She went to check it out and saw the arowana dead. It had stopped moving. It has jumped out of its tank even though the roof of it was open a slight bit, and that thing was about 5-6 centimetres thick.
Probably the tank doesnt fit for him, when fish jump out of the tank, there is 2 reason for it The tank size too small or the fish has too much excited for they water, they think they live on they natural environment and wanted to explore it out of the glass
They're not that expensive for an albino white one, it only costs around 150-300 bucks. The prices go up for a red arowana (up to 70K) or a golden arowana (up to 300K). But they're extremely hard to take care of, you usually need a very big fish tank for just one arowana, their body is usually long so a big fish tank is needed for them to swim freely. Sometimes, they can get really aggressive also and they tend to jump off the water surface.
I don’t think you know who Emily Voigt is. She spent years with some of the top ichthyologists in the world in pursuit of this fish. She didn’t mistake the price.
Welp the color quality of the fish does have to come to the standards first to have a high price. I've seen many low quality arowanas selling around less than 100 dollars.
I knew an auntie who would be so proud of her arawana. She's say how little it was when she first got it. And how she's been able to raise it to the size today. I remember people saying that having an arawana in your house was good luck. And the longer it lived, the bigger the luck you'd get.

I went to a local pet store in my area where they also sell regular juvenile silver arowanas for around P1,200 or $25 each. I noticed that in a separate tank, there is a single arowana which looks almost the same but if you look closer, it radiates golden streaks. I was told it’s a Golden arowana that costs P9,000 or around $180. I badly want it!!!!
Asian Arowana is different South American Arowana. You also showed an Australian Arowana. Your research is insufficient that's why the presentation is also inaccurate.
People don’t call them dragon fish. They call them Arawana. Plus it’s not a albino that sells for 300k, it’s the platinum cause at any pet store a albino cost $200

Asian arowana are expensive because they're on the endangered species list. Other types of arowana are not that expensive however and are pretty easy to obtain.
high demand and low supply its due to the chinese believing it would bring good luck to them they also are endangered in conclusion its due to high demand low supply
For any of you living near the Amazon River, there's a Silver Arowana. It's quite a nice fish too. And I think this version is LEGAL to own in the U.S.
I had one too. I was on junior high. I can't understand why my dad's collagues asking me to sell Vegeta (my dragon fish) in riddicilous high price (I was an idiot, I thought it'd just a fish)
I used to have a few. They are scared of the color Red. My brother frightened one and it jumped out of the fish tank, happened to jump out of the window, and fell 10 levels to its tragic death.
Mind Data Intelligence how and why are they afraid of red ? But in Chinese myths , dragons that come to attack and eat humans on every Chinese New Year are afraid of loud sounds and are afraid of red . So ..... is this a coincidence? Or is this a fish version of a dragon ....

I bought a baby Golden arowana back in 2007 for 1200 bucks,now its almost as tall as me and countless people offered me 100,000 for the fish which is way more than my yearly income.But i wont sell him as he knows me very well and actually communicates with me very nicely and I love him 🙃🙃🙃😁
and my friend’s dad owns one, and one time my friend was threatening her dad by saying she will fry that fish and eat it if he wouldn’t let her go for a vacation to macau.
I had no idea, I used to see them now and then, small ones, at the pet store here in Canada in the ‘90’s. I wonder if they are still around? I think the problem back then was you needed a huge tank because they grew fairly fast. That’s why I never got one.
You didn’t mention that there are other types of arowana that are legal to keep in the US. The most common and cheapest is the silver arowana, which has a much more serpentine body type (some were shown in the video) and go for about $90 as juveniles. The extra white ones are called platinum and are much more valuable, like the one that sold for 300k. I’ve been into arowanas for a few years but I don’t have the space for a 500 gallon tank yet, sadly. I’ll get there.
i remember arowana fishes becoming super popular in the early 2000s, and a classmate, their family kept arowanas AND gigantic arapaima. They lost the arapaimas when a typhoon flooded their area, most likely they got washed out from their pond down to the river nearby.
There was a fish seller in my city . He was famous and was earning well . He had this fish shown above . He used to believe it used to bring luck for his business . He kept it in his shop but one time they were painting the shop and the tank burst .The fish died and so did the business after that .
Silver arowana are very common and are from the Amazon River. They're not danger and out of all the arowana are one of the least beautiful and cheapest going for $20-$50 a baaby.
Its like a hobby to us keeping an Arowana and watch carefully how its grow on colours. We also have competition and these fish are the pageant🤣 Need more work to get more results. There are peoples tanning them for 4-6 months and give them centipedes.
I watched a documentary from Korea or the US (I am not sure), but there were villagers who would work really hard to catch a single Arowana to sell as food. One really big Arowana can bring enough money to feed the family for months because it was a luxury food. However, those Arowanas that they catch were big as a small child and beautiful.
Makes a video about Asian arowana forgets to mention the ones that are cheaper costing a few hundred or less than a hundred because they must all be as much as a car right?
In the Philippines, the Arowana is lowkey considered a status symbol at least to the people interested in fish keeping. It's considered good luck for both business establishment and wealthy homes.
its a myth where the fish would kill itself to protect any accidents or harm befalling the owner. theyre stories where owners miraculously survives a car crash only to come home to find their arowana dead.
Emily Voigt is a very talented author and I would definitely recommend The Dragon Behind the Glass. It is an amazing book and she did a very job of telling a truly captivating story just about a fish.
I'VE BEEN SEEING POST EVERYWHERE ABOUT FOREX TRADING AND CRYPTO CURRENCY, A LOT OF PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THINGS ABOUT THIS TRADING PLATFORMS PLEASE CAN SOMEONE LINK ME TO SOMEBODY WHO CAN PUT ME THROUGH...?
True story. I worked in a petland discount back when I was a teen and they had a little one on sale for 80 bucks at the time. Someone comes in to pays for it and when I go to get it for them I did not know the fish jump and when I opened up the top of the tank the fish jumped to his death. The poor fish hit the floor and was dead. We actually had to save the body.

My local pet store has these big aquariums instead of a table.. And they have this fish in it. Never knew that it was this rare..
“What do you do for a job?” “oh I guard fish”
He said dragon fish way too many tines in this video
lmao yea it triggered me , iwas like GODDAMIT IT'S AROWANA
hatim soudani yea it was triggering me
Jordan Vann every time they do, I keep thinking of my dragon goby lol
Makes a video about Asian arowana forgets to mention the ones that are cheaper costing a few hundred or less than a hundred because they must all be as much as a car right?
In the Philippines, the Arowana is lowkey considered a status symbol at least to the people interested in fish keeping. It's considered good luck for both business establishment and wealthy homes.
Did she just say the fish will jump out of the tank to save their owner??
its a myth where the fish would kill itself to protect any accidents or harm befalling the owner. theyre stories where owners miraculously survives a car crash only to come home to find their arowana dead.
Asian myth. There's also this myth that aros will trade lives with their owners - dying instead of the owner
Emily Voigt is a very talented author and I would definitely recommend The Dragon Behind the Glass. It is an amazing book and she did a very job of telling a truly captivating story just about a fish.
I thought it was very good too.
This is the first time in my life I've heard someone refers to arowana as 'dragon fish'
"How many cars do you have? "
"Nah, I keep fish..!!"
You can get the fish way more cheaper in Malaysia 👌🏻
Yeaaaa
To quote a famous movie character: "it's more illegal to shoot a tiger, than it is your own mother! If it exists, it's probably illegal...".

True story. I worked in a petland discount back when I was a teen and they had a little one on sale for 80 bucks at the time. Someone comes in to pays for it and when I go to get it for them I did not know the fish jump and when I opened up the top of the tank the fish jumped to his death. The poor fish hit the floor and was dead. We actually had to save the body.
Was that the only one left?
Americans call Football Soccer and Arowana’s dragon fish
it's 80 dollars in my local fish store. forget it I was talking about the silver arowana
So exotic carp?
@conan263 What kind of sophistry the fengshui expert say that arwana do but koi can't?
* Exotic CRAP
conan263 it's Arowana. Nobody calls it the dragon fish.
conan263 but I am Asian. Maybe is it because in the US where I live, nobody calls it a dragon fish?
These are not in the same family as carp.
You thinking of Koi?
I could imagine a robber mistakenly braking in into these please thinking it was like a bank only to be confused by all “worthless” fish
$300K Fish Vs $300K Car
*WhY ThE FiSH oF CoUrsE?!!*
"These fish are worth thousands of dollars"
"Theyre illegal to sell in the United States"
"Albino arowanas are especially rare and expensive"
*stares at the dozens of arowana being sold in local specialized fish stores for a lot less that $500 each, along with the actually albino arowanas that have the red/pink eyes that aren't even $700 each* ok
Asian arowana and silver/albino arowana arent the same.
@@Thonycv I've seen arowana with the telltale pink eyes at specialized pet stores (tho in this video, like many have pointed out, uses silver arowana instead of actual albino arowana which is rly funny imo). I assume the ones I've seen just happened to be born there or they're donated for one reason or another, but I've seen a few very clearly albino arowanas being sold on occasion at pet stores
The one in the video is platinum, albino fish have red or pink eyes and the white is a bit yellow or pink
