So, 2? 3?Asian Arowana's are illegal AF in the US, they're a CITES fish. You're probably going to federal prison if you get caught with one. There are captive bred Asian Arowana's, but the US still doesn't allow them, and you'll be prosecuted the same as if you broke CITES law.
You can buy silver or jardini Arowana's though.
Asian Arowana's like what we have now are a "living fossil" and have been around for a couple of million years (estimates are from 1-3 million)
