Are micro-chipped/certified Asian arowanas OK in the US?

not to derail, but I didn't realise it was illegal across the pond for you guys...arowana's aren't my thing, hence severe lack on knowledge about them and the related topics, i'd assumed a lot of arowana's i seen on here were in the US as well...obviously mistaken or else somebody is misbehaving lol.
Saying that, I know a few hobbyists here in the UK with illegal species; that have managed to acquire them one way or other...no fish would make me illegally import though :O

There's no such thing as a City shipping permit. I think your're referring to CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of wild fauna and flora).
I've taken the time to call up scammers on occasion, kind of entertaining to do once, gets boring after that.
Here is a thread from Canada with lots of information about these sorts of scams: http://www.arowanaclub.ca/forums/showthread.php?t=4924

I see these ads all over Craigslist, definitely just scammers trying to take your money.
They've been running the same scam for a decade. Check out their awesome customer testimonials at the bottom of their website:

Good idea. Title edited and thread stuck.
