Arosouth Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 (edited) Hi! I found in Thailand still there is no commercial arowana farm except imports from Indonesia,Malaysia and Singapore unlike Malaysia(Sianleng) and Singapore(Qianfu) have up-listing their companies in stock market by breeding arowana for exports to China,Canada ,Japan ,Taiwan and other asian countries. I suggest,if you have some money and qualitfied to invest in this business why waste your time in other farming that long waiting for your return no doubt Thailand is the best place for fish farming,but,we must work smart don't work hard. Please take a look at the website of how they selling the arowana in Thailand: http://www.aro4u.com/ scroll up and check the market price list,I reckon just to supply the local market you will make a fortune or you want to be richer you might apply for the CITES permit and export to China that they import thousands of young aros. from South Asian countries monthly. If you doubt about this business you may search at google for asian arowana and forums to understand more abouth this species.more sites for you to view: http://www.indodragon.com http://www.arowanacafe.com http://arowanaclub.com Edited September 8, 2006 by Arosouth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arosouth Posted September 8, 2006 Author Share Posted September 8, 2006 Farm requirement One rai of land to make 8 earthen ponds at size 60 ft x 20 ft x 2.5 dept. therefore,it depends on how many ponds you required providied you have enough of capital to buy parent stocks,market price for collecting from home breeders who given up hobby ranged from THB 60,000 each and above based on strains,Malaysian Golden is the most expensive which can cost up to THB 500,000.00 each of the show quality stock,but,we need those for breeding stock offer them at the highest THB 100,000.00 each . One pond can rear up to 25 pcs. so,just calculate how much money you have,if you are a qualified investor and dare to take a risk but just without any expertise,I can run the farm for you and guarantee with outlet for your production. We as expats must find somethings that Thai unable to produce then we can make a fortune,but,still we need Thai wives to do official paper works for us. hahaha!!! P.S: I made reseach for more than 5 years and helped one farm breed arowana successfully with higher reproduction,now,is my turn to make money,so,I am looking for qualified investor.

But they don't breed arowana except imports and wholesale locally,their main business is other tropical fishes and aquarium accessories. anyway,the invest for arowana farm is still worth consideration,do you know,after CNN brocasted the arowana business in Malaysia is so big,it has attracted many big companies from Malaysia,Singapore and Taiwan to invest this business in Malaysia. with the climate ,enviroment and supplies of arowana food,I think Thailand is more nominant for this point .

chownah Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Is this fish mostly raised as a pet or is it mostly raised for food? For some reason it makes me think of those long eared cows whose price could never justify eating one...only keeping as a pet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nawtilus Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Shocking to eat, full of bones. In Oz they are called 'Saratoga' and are one of the best fighting fish to catch in the wild. They are usually a browny colour, at least the ones I have caught were. I remember in Oz many years ago people breeding and even catching these fish in the wild as youngsters and selling them to a roaring Japanese market for prices of $50k to 100k each and yes that is DOLLARS, even though ossie dollars.
