Pretty sure this is a joke... first off no way you found an Arapaima for $50. Second, there's no chance that you could ACTUALLY get a tank big enough for one. A 300 gallon tank would be outgrown in a year.:grinno:

Seriously though, I'm having a hard time trying to figure out where to put a 600 gal tank in my house. 600 gal isn't even big enough for an arapaima to grow out and thrive. Imagine trying to feed a full grown paima. I spend enough money feeding my silver aro and two Achara cats better yet one paima. It would be cool to say that you own an arapaima, but you'll get hated on as soon as you mention what size tank you have.

His case is quite common in Asia, cheap fish and vendors who will sell any one anything. (assuming thats where hes from). Had an eastern europe guy come into my work to buy an entire 55g set up, and then demanded 5 silver arrowanas to be pre-ordered, couldn't tell him different. Some people are just stubborn and ignorant.

Edit: saw he's from CA, now I'm thinking troll, I doubt he could get a paima that cheap and that size at this time of year in CA.

Im not trolling i will post pics of it if i have to.. I got it at P and P tropical fish a great legit store and got it for 50 bucks i know it sounds crazy but i did.. its the store that sells for good prices.. look em up on google
 
I even wrote my name on my hand to prove it! proved you guys all wrong.. im not from asia or you would tell if i had an accent.. im not a troll either! I know pimas grow huge and require at least 1,000 gallon tank! that is exactly why i am selling mine! look up P & P tropical fish and call and ask if they were selling pimas for 50 bucks each if you pre ordered them! i pre ordered mine and got it for 50! if you dont pre order then its around 100.. so there you go!
