any bony-tongue fish including arowana (all except the silver) is illegal to own in FL regardless of qualifications. The only way you could get one is if you build a zoo, and they are STILL difficult to get for zoo's.Arapaimaman;72201; said:i HAVE KEEPED ARAPAIMA'S FORE OVER 20 YEARS.I BUILT A 1500 GAL.TANK THAT I THOUGH THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO JUMP OUT OF!
