We have 2 species of arowana here in Queensland Australia. They can be caught for food, but mostly for sport. They jump well. To eat they are very boney and often have a muddy taste. I prefer barramundi.
Its just like a bass to them...They don't get all obsessed w/ 'm, cuz they are native fish there. They probably think keeping 1 as a pet is a stupid waist of money. It looks pretty tasty even... I'm gonna buy 1 soon though so it is a bummer to see sum1 eat wut would be a $3-500 fish (*if it was alive)
@dondipa no I meant $300-$500 but I just typed $3-500. I'm probably wrong anyway, I live in japan so prices may very, I just bought a 1yr old silver bout 8"-10" long. hes got pink fins & green pearl in his scales & gills, really cool fish 4 bout $60, is that a good price (u think?) or did I get ripped of?
ill eat it.... if it died first.... thats what i did to my silver arowana and let me tell you there meat tastes just like some delicious salmon with the right ingredients, and he was a 30", enough for the whole family
Fuk that man! I dont know why freaking people want to eat something like that! Shit man! Who the hell r u?? U want me to kill u or what? Fuk u! God damn it! How do u feel If i cook you! U moran! Go home and eat urs damn pussy! Fuk that shit! If i know where u from I'll just kill u ! Fuck! Son of a bitch! Drink ur mama pee! Fuck u mother bitch!@@@
shut the fuck up you little fagget ass bitch, i said IF IT DIED FIRST...not like imma just kill an beautiful arowana just to eat em.... you stupid fuck...
that got to be the most expensive dinner for me... that fish worth about 5,000 USD in the U.S. An endanger fish that is banned in the USA is being eaten in asia for dinner. thats some shit LMAO
the asian aros r ez to breed, just one farm in asia that can breed thuosand of the fishes every year, not mention there r thousand of farms like these across asia...they r no longer endanger specie to my point of view, therefore having one or 2 for lunch is common.. i wonder why they category these fish as endanger specie.. Sighsss.
everybody bitches and moans about how they are endangered..have you seen the videos of the fish farms they got out there?
there must be hundreds of thousands of arowana, constantly breeding and being renewed...why is he eating this one? I don't know, it don't matter,the arowana is only so expensive outside of asia...the most beautiful ones are always costly, but they are bought by collectors, not just
some random guy to take it home and eat it..youz get to uptight..and for what??
It's kind of anoying that to keep them here, you need a permet cause they are endangered, though, they are now captive breed in great numbers now. So it's anoying cause I really want one. Though I don't currently don't feeling like getting off my ass and paying thousands of dollars and filling out a permet.
Oh well it probobly tasts very good, I just like complaining :)
/Amused, clearly a moron, i stand by my previous statement, The only time i used the word "while" was quoting someone. Learn to read, before you dare impune others ability to interpret. As for the fish,any one with a brain stem, knows, the asians are constantly defacing their original state as found in the wild. Example, do you think you will find an Emperor Aro in the wild? I am not here to try educate idiots i know that is not possible, merely here to laugh at you, so go ahead. Amuse me more:)
do you realize how idiotic u made urself look. i understand u got affended and u misunderstood my use of the word "while" any retard can see that. you are the one who needs educating, dont argue somthing you know little about.
and dude, if that is your hypothesis, i dare you to try dignify eating snails by that means. Some things are clearly edible, and others arn't. Its just pretty sterotypical, boardering Ironic, that these fiends seem to enjoy eating pets... And Yes, I eat beef, not take it up my ass, like some... :) - Regards
asian arowana is expensive even in asia... if you talking about... RTG, red and golden x-back species... u are paying USD1,000 - 3,000 per piece for a young one... size 4" - 10".... price for a size more than 12" can be phenomenal.. and is depended on the pattern of the body and colour of the scales...
the only reason for the dudes ate their arowana was because the fish already dead!!!
@tancho when a large group of people drive thousands of fish and aquatic mammal species to go extinct every year, then yes it does make the person bad.
just so use all know while arowana are endangered in there native country they are a common pest species in others, and its only one or two strains that are endangered. besides all that if the asian arowana is anything like Saratogas there shit eating.
you truely are, moronic, There is no such fish as the""while"arowana, and neither is there a White, arowana, before you go spinning shit, learn to research :) the fish in the video is Silver, and is worth about 11dollars in my country.
SireSymbol88 i think you are the moron, learn the english language "while" is not a noun, in a sentence "WHILE i was reading your moronic reply the phone rang". that is and asian arawana not a south american silver arowana. you need to do your research . peace to u my friend
For sure this fish just died and the guy decided to cook it. You are just as dumb if you try to decide to serve this in you restaurant. You can make shit load of money selling this fish alive.
Theres so many of them in Asia, Im sure the fish was already dead! even if it was not dead, at least he was not killing it for fun, and it was not going to waste.
i have to eat arowana at least once a week...if not i just don't feel right. Being endangered won't stop me...i work at a pet store and i raise them myself.
I truly hope there is a reason for this, such as a poor native family that are desperate are eating this to survive. Otherwise, why eat an endangered species??? I understand it is a food source for native people, but, if they want it to be able to rely on it for the future, people who can avoid eating it have no business doing so. The fact that this person recognized that this would even be of interest to post on youtube says he's probably not the starving native, but just wants attention.
yeah true. Btw can i ask something? i have a 3 year old red tail golden arowana, but the colours havent shown up yet. What is wrong? I feed it live gold fish twice a week, and other fish food. thanks.
This has nothing to do with it but, how big is your arowana?
anywho, you should have a black background around the tank, and feeding twice a week is horribly bad. Should feed it everyday, but not feeder gold fish. They are bad in nutrients and just plain o' fat. Try to have a variety of foods and he will grow like a monster.
Should feed him dried shrimp which will help the coloration of the scales BIG TIME.
if you have any other questino feel free to privte message me :)
hmm.. 3 decades huh.... seems like u have been learning a language with a wrong name... what about calling me a master so that i teach u wat is called HOKKIEN??? if u still think that u i'm wrong, then u can start finding a tuition class that teach hokkien.
I guess its normal in other countries to eat fish that we consider to be of great value. Who knows...maybe someone in the world would think its a sin to eat bass or perch :D.
Don't be so quick to judge, it was probably a pet fish and died(maybe jumped out of the water), then they cooked it up, I'm pretty sure they did not spend thousands of dollars just to eat it.....
I have to roll my eyes at the comments. You guys might consider them as pets, but arowanas are abundant in Asia, so Asian's eat them. Period! Americans are such ignorants...I'm embarrassed to be one.
Eating a beautiful fish that is near extinction.. Leave it to the Asia.
