2 Platinum silver arowanas, at 7" for $55 each. I almost had the urge of buying one... the color is simply amazing, the store also have regular silver arowanas and there's simply no comparison.:drool:

then..............

no, the store did not label the fish as "platinum", the only fish that is labeled as a "platinum" was a 2ft silver arowana. the fish I'm talking about are merely 6-7".

which is it?

Dude..just a word of warning...true platinum silvers..can command a price up to US36K retailing...and I think the ones you saw, for $55..is really something to ponder upon...

did the store label the silvers as 'Platinum silvers' on the tank?

One trick in the trade is this....they can keep the silvers in a white fibre tank or white styrofoam boxes for a period of time before sale...as time pass..the silvers will naturally turn whitish due to the environment it is kept in....

so, once they are taken out..they really look platinum and all white out...they look just as good...

but trust me..once you bought them home..and keep them in a normal tank environment..just for a period of 2 weeks...the silver will turn back to its original tone of color..

so, dun be dubbed into getting one...

55 for a reg sliver is a good price

And it could be a light phase morph like the jardinis that oddballer is selling.
That lfs regularly brings in weird silver aros . They had silvers with long fins
2 years ago.
