      I am talking to that same guy for a chili red....they are certified home bred but that does not get it past the CITES.

        Ad says seller is in PA. You can't buy or sell asian aros in the US. I wouldn't be surprised to see the US Wildlife officers somewhere nearby.

          Okay guys - I know very little about types of arowanna (although I've had a black and silver in the past). What does RTG mean?

          Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
          Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

            Red Tail Golden Arowana...they do nothing for me personally!  They are also illegal to sell and to even own in the United States...risky business

              In the US you are only allowed to have one kind of Arowana -- silver Arowana.  You can still keep your non-silver Arowana if it was born prior to 1986.

                I thought the black arowana was legal since it wasn't an asian aro.

                    All arowana's except the silver is on the endangered species list.
                    US law states if the wild life is endangered then it cannot be imported.
                    There are several petitions for chipped and bred in farm arowana's to be legalized in the US since many other countries have legalized them, but currently they are not.

                        Black, silver, australian (jardini) aros are all legal in the US.  There is an african variety that is also legal.

                        If you see a RTG, chili red, blood red, red, cross-back, green, gold..........all these are asian varieties and illegal to buy or sell in the US currently.

                          +1 on what RonR said.

                          Everything but Asians are legal or ugly.
