Default XB Arowana Price Range...

Hi Bros,

Would like to know the price range for XB Arowanas from reputable farms like Qian Hu, Pang Long, OTF and Panda Arowana. Recommend if there's any other farms for getting XBs. Thanks in advance!

pay peanut get monkey.. but a few time might get a good aro when grow bigger if you are damn lucky.. but chances are rare.. so those farm are expert in aro and they can tell the grade of the aro even when they are young.. so good grade one either export for higher profit and sell at higher price for local hobbies.

same reason as many ppl buy SP ray and hope to get black and white ray..

price between all farm will vary... just buy whatever that you like and fit your budget.. you can go farm hopping or LFS to see... not all farm will open to public to just walk in and buy

Default Depending on season

I picked up a few pcs of xb from a local farm, from juvenile. They are cheaper if you can pre-order or select from the batch. Range from low $400-high $1800

Although xb prices has came down a lot over the years..quality ones still commands a high price.. I firmly belief in quality than quantity. Can't expect a Casio to compare to a Rolex ...#justsaying

100% agree.. as what we can see... good grade GHXB are still pricing over $1K, eg full helmet GHXB

and those juv with golden throat, belly, 6lvl crossing are still selling at much higher price compare to those "normal" grade we saw at most LFS
