500 lts is just about 132 USG. This should be good for only one arowana IMO.

My mistake, Though I typed in 500L, my mind was thinking 500G !!!
Update? |

Jithu must be running around. Please contact/PM Laluprasad. He is on the forum. That is if your parcel is stuck in the railway station.  |

The guy frm Bng says he couldn't find a "blue barrel" in which big fishes are usually transported !
So i dunno when he is gonna send it !
Lets hope for the best :)

Is there anyone in here frm Banglore who can tell me where one can get this "blue barrel" from ? |

Trevor used to sell Acid in the blue barrels when he was in his prime time business.
Am sure he will have many of them around in his junkyard.
Please check with him asap  |

hi jithu
sorry abt the delay ....
i havent sent the fish as yet ... the reason being i didnt get the permission to put in the water container on to the train ... even though sealed ....
i suppose it will take another day or two ...... i m looking for an effective alternative .... i m also looking at travelling to trivandrum if necessary
|
I guess he got the "blue barrel" and now he needs "permission".
I don't think he is a crook but then again i had been wrong before
Still hopping for the best ! |

Transporting fish by barrels has been done before through the railways.
In this present age I do not think now it will be that easy.
I do not think he is a crook. Just an amateur.
I am sure you will get the fish.  |

Hi Jithu,
Off topic:
Any particular reason for buying big size aro?
Juvi Silvers grow really fast (approx.1-1.5" a month).
Why don't you raise baby aro & experience the fun of growing it, just my thoughts.  |
