[@BossDaddyAjik]

Thats why i see thier aquarium stores is total bs.all tetra,small fishes etc. Feel sorry for them

[@justinstuart8382]

They are banned in the US primarily because Asia couldn't keep up with the demand of supplying them to the US. It would take over the business. However I have 2, High back Golden and Super Red, and I live in Jersey. Ask me how?

[@rtmaquatics]

That’s interesting, so the reason Asian Arowanas are banned in the US despite being an endangered species is because Asia can’t keep up with the demand in the US market. And how did you get the High Back Golden and the Super Red arowana in New Jersey?

[@justinstuart8382]

@@rtmaquatics you are correct the main reason is because they are endangered and on CITIES appendix 1, however the 2nd reason is in truth Asia does not want to supply Arowana to the US. Because I live in the real Jersey. See if you can work it out lol 😆

[@rtmaquatics]

Is the real Jersey that you mean is an island close to France?, cuz when i typed Jersey on google maps it shows an island close to France
