SoCal man sentenced to a year in prison in fish smuggling case

Selling drug would be much easily than arowana...If you want to get rich for doing illegal.

I met Peter once at his house. He had several rare Arowanas in his garage. Beautiful fish. I remember he had a chili red with purple base....wow!! He wanted $5000 for it.

Small world.

I actually know Bruce from boating related stuff. I had heard he had fish and stuff but since it was freshwater I never even asked him about it. That would explain why I haven't heard much from him on other message boards.

Is there really a demand for Asian Arowanas that someone would
pay thousands?Ten thousand a pop is no joke..

There was a link posted about some guy who bought a $250K arowana (yes, in US Dollars!) And I feel bad because I blew $60 on a Purple Tang... :lol:

how about an $80K arrowana?
