Anyone want a $22,000 Freshwater setup?

550 Gallon Arowana Community tank!! I don't know anyone that would walk up and drop $22,000 for a tank setup and livestock lol.

Watch the YouTube video though, very impressive tank!

I bet the majority of the cost is for the arrowanas I wonder what he would sell the rest separately for?

Anyone who has 22 grand for a fish tank isn't going to buy it used

I'm surprised it doesn't say "will not part out"

I counted 10 arrowanas in there... s/he'd be better off selling the arrowanas off at $2K to $3K a piece. I think there's enough arrowana-crazed folks in the area to go for that.

speaking of high-priced used tanks... check out Big Al's sell off on displays

I always wanted a fish tank that I could dive inside... haven't been able to do that since I was a volunteer scuba algae scrubber at the Florida Aquarium.

he has two 22 grand setups for sale the other is a 600 gallon with stingrays

I love arowanas (even have a tattoo of one). He must have spent a fortune on those water dragons. I think he'd have better luck selling off some of them though. Also, are all snakeheads banned in Canada now or is it just the northern snakeheads?

He also has one full of rays. Im going to guess all that cost is the lovestock and that his wife is making him sell so he put a big price tag on it just so he can say he put if up for sale.

And i thought at $2500 for a used spAcerium was expensive...
