bro yung 14in mo. how old na? meron din ako 8in pa. mga 2 months ata. im wondering kelan sya lalabasan ng red coloration. live ka all the time? ano frequency at feeding quantity mo? TIA!
for 45$ but they look kind of thin(like their side you can see a bit of bone structure which i think is the spine). Should I buy one or wait til they fatten up and get em? I already have it on hold.
hi turboda6, i'm from manila, philippines.. got the pima @ a local fish store... i must warn u tho that they (arapaimas) grow very fast & huge so be prepared to invest in a large tank or pond & for its food... man, they eat like pigs... good luck bro...
damn ur lucky, i needa go back to the filipines lol. i kno how fast they grow and how big they get, i live in san diego california and here at sea world they have some a lil over 5 feet. there awesome fish and i love the colors. if i got one i'd only keep it in a tank for the first 3 feet, after that he'd be transfered to my backyard pond when i finish building it. i wish i had one already lol. how much would it cost to ship one to me?
man thats my dream...but i don't wanna go back to philipines for a fish lol... it's to expensive here and so rare...havve'nt even seen one in my fish store...
Why anyone buys these fish is beyond me... You do realize they grow to over 6 feet in length?

I hope that tank is 2000 gal minimum or you're going to need to find a zoo.
