fish that shoudn't be sold

I have a vision!!

*trembles*

I.....am......going.....to make..........*twitch*.........my own.....lake.....
 
oh yea and that setup in the pictures was built for an aquascaping contest. that guy got thirdplace!! he didnt even win!!
 
yes-that is what my house will look like someday. all i really want is a giant arowana! i got some of my goldfish and koi from a lady who turned her swimming pool into a breeding pond. she got tired of having a big puddle of mud in her back yard and sold most of the fish to the pet store...and then gave me some :D
 
my local fish shop in new york has an arowana that is at least 18 inches long

they keep it in a 40-60 gallon tank with a 8-10 inch gold pleco of some sort.
 
my arowana is atleast 26 inches probably a couple inches bigger. he would be giant if i had a bigger tank for him, its a 180. and if he would eat more than once every 2 weeks.
