"Hi John, this fish is ...... Arowana bar! Looking at the fish swimming in the fish tank in front of him, Jiang Hai asked with some uncertainty, because the fish in front of him at this time really looked like Arowana, and it was a relatively valuable species.

When Jiang Hai was in middle school before, his family raised fish for a while, of course, it was not a precious species like Arowana, but some small broken fish, and his father didn't know who influenced him, so he began to like to raise fish.

At first, I just raised some small fish like phoenix tails, traffic lights, submarines, etc., but later I felt that small fish were not interesting.

I started raising maps, then arhats, and then parrots, and I raised fish for a while.

In the end, these fish all died in the end, but it can be regarded as accompanying Jiang Hai for a long time, and it was not until after he graduated from college that his father gave up fish farming because the fish tank in the house was broken, but Jiang Hai followed his father to the fish market to buy fish and the like since he was a child.

He still knows something about fish, at least Arowana, the most expensive fish that can be sold in the aquarium market, he knows, but aren't these Arowana ornamental fish? Why is this fish still in the Washington Convention?

"Oh, this kind of fish, I heard that it is indeed called Arowana in China, but here this fish is called beautiful arapaima, which is a variant of arapaima, and it is indeed a protected fish species in the Washington Convention." Hearing Jiang Hai's words, John also introduced it, looking at the few fish in front of him that were already quite long, Jiang Hai also lay there and watched.

"This fish is indeed very beautiful, but its research value is not too high, because it has been found all over the world." Looking at Jiang Hai, he seemed to be very interested in this fish. John from here also walked over. explained to Jiang Hai.

Arowana. That is, the beautiful arapaima, well, it is not as comfortable to call this scientific name as it is to call it Arowana.

This fish is a very ancient fish species, dating back to the Archean Carboniferous period 360 million years ago.

At that time, this fish already existed, and can compete with the ancestors of sharks, this fish was mainly found in Asia and the Indian subcontinent 140 million years ago, but with the division of Pangea. The movement of the earth's crust also allowed the fish to be distributed all over the world, and the earliest fish was found in the Amazon in 1829, but it was white and golden.

Now the most precious blood dragon was found in South Vietnam in 1933, in addition to the Asian Peninsula, Sumatra, Banga Island, Baltic Island, Thailand and other places are produced Arowana, and later people gradually divided these Arowana into several categories.

The cheapest ones are the Silver Dragon and the Green Dragon. Further up is the golden dragon, the orange-red arowana. Golden Arowana, Platinum Arowana.

One of the most famous platinum Arowana fish is an adult fish, and it even sells for 300,000 US dollars.

Of course, the platinum Arowana is not something that can be cultivated, and this kind of Arowana needs the golden dragon to have albinism before it can be cultivated.

Unlike this Burmese python, the golden python has a high chance of albinism, especially if it is cultivated in captivity.

But these arowana are absolutely hard to come by, and according to John's words, they also have a Chinese here.

According to the words of this Chinese, the Arowana here has almost any quality, after all, this is Boston, and the United States is the boss of the world, and the aquarium he runs has to collect some rare fish species from all over the world.

There are very few people who don't sell their face, so there are all kinds of arowana here, in addition to a lot of silver dragons, golden dragons, red dragons, blood red dragons, pepper red dragons, and even over-the-back golden dragons and the like, there are all here, if these fish are sold in China, the price is not generally high, but although there are many people in the United States who raise fish, but for fish, there is really no too high price.

"Anyway, I can't see how beautiful this fish is." Leaning on the glass and glancing at the fish in front of him, John pouted.

"Hehe......" Hearing his words, Jiang Hai also smiled, people's aesthetics can't always be forcibly transformed.

John didn't look good-looking, and Jiang Hai didn't have anything to say, but after listening to his introduction, Jiang Hai was a little moved.

He used to follow his father, and he liked to raise fish, but then he went to college, he didn't live at home, and he wasn't allowed to raise these things in the dormitory, Jiang Hai didn't forget it, although he raised a lot of fish now, but he didn't raise these ornamental fish.

The main thing is that it sounds like the fish is still very valuable......

A platinum arowana is worth 300,000 US dollars, which is much more expensive than a big bluefin golden gun, unless it reaches the level of the king of fish, otherwise a tuna may not be sold for 30,000 US dollars, let alone 300,000!

It seems that raising this thing is also a way to make a fortune, of course, platinum arowana is not raised by breeding.

The ichthyosaur itself is extremely rare, and according to John, there are two types of white arowana.

One is the snow dragon, the other is the platinum dragon, of course, the price of the two kinds of fish is about the same, the snow dragon is mutated from the silver dragon, and the platinum dragon is mutated from other dragonfish, but this can mutate the fish, there are really very few.

According to some people, there may not be one in a million fish that can mutate, which means that the chance of mutation is 1 in 1 million, well, this is almost the same as zero......

There are a lot of Arowana offspring, although the maturity period is five or six years, or even more than ten years, but once an egg is laid, there will be a lot of Arowana, and these Arowana have been carefully cared for here, and they are not sold here, so the number of Arowana here is really a lot, but so many Arowana, there is no one albino.

And the most important thing is that even if it is a descendant produced with two platinum dragons, there is no use for birds, and it should not be out or not.

The success rate has not improved much, and Jiang Hai has nothing else to say about this except Khan.

However, if he cultivates with aura, there may not be no chance that he will become like this.

Even if you can't get an albino variety, it is inevitable that it will grow big and good, and the Americans didn't think about taking these fish to sell in Huaxia, but Jiang Hai could, thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at John.

"By the way, John, I'm very interested in these fish, can you get me some?" Money is not a problem! Looking at John beside him, Jiang Hai looked at him with a hot face, and then lowered his voice and said to him.

However, although his voice was low, Dominica next to him still heard it, and couldn't help muttering in his heart, "Here we go again!" ”

Jiang Hai really can't change what to eat, no matter where he goes, he wants to get these things.

I wanted to raise their brown bears again, and I wanted to raise fish again, but this time, she didn't scold Jiang Hai.

Because the number of this kind of fish is not too small, wild nature is very precious, but in the non-wild state, artificial breeding can be artificially cultivated, but the survival rate is slightly lower, and it is far from extinction and the like.

So Jiang Hai wanted to raise this fish, she didn't care, but looked at the dolphin next to her, this kind of thing will be left to Jiang Hai and John to talk about by themselves, and after John heard Jiang Hai's words, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

If Jiang Hai wanted to buy other fish, then he would have turned his face a long time ago, but this kind of arowana is not very valuable to be honest.

There is a lot of it here, just to increase this species, and now Jiang Hai wants to buy it, but he is not very easy to say.

"We won't sell it, but if you donate some money, we might be able to give you some." After thinking about it for a while, it is naturally not possible to directly buy and sell things from the US government, but if it is donated or gifted, then it is said.

Of course, he can't get the money he donated, it's for the zoo.

Although it was just bought in a different way, it looked much better to outsiders, and after hearing his words, Jiang Hai also smiled, sure enough, this is not a difficult thing, and there are really few things that money can't do in the United States.

immediately agreed to donate 100,000 US dollars, of course, the fish he asked for must be worth more than 100,000 US dollars.

Hearing that Jiang Hai was so generous, John here was also very happy, and became even more enthusiastic about Jiang Hai.

is even already asking what varieties Jiang Hai wants and how many they want, so Jiang Hai smiled at this first.

He didn't even buy a fish tank now, so it was useless to be in a hurry, and besides, he didn't mainly come to buy fish now, after a few words with John, Jiang Hai followed him and continued to walk.

After walking through the aquatic animal area, it is the terrestrial animal area, and the terrestrial animals here are also at the level of protection, Jiang Hai even saw the Siberian tiger here, of course, the Siberian tiger is not the original here, the Siberian tiger is only produced in Northeast China and Siberia in Soviet Russia, and is the largest cat in the world, uh, but now it looks like it is indeed smaller than the mountain lion, regardless of the mountain lion, this is still the most powerful cat.

And Jiang Hai was not surprised to see this guy here, after all, there are not too many species in North America.

This is known to all of us, and after the European colonists landed on the American continent, species were almost extinct, such as large cats, which were rarely seen here.

After passing through the terrestrial area, they came to the bird area, which was very large and varied, and there were some small birds, only in some natural cages, and some of the big birds occupied a woodland on their own, and when they came to the outside of the largest woodland here, John and they stopped, because they were in the place.

Looking at the artificial forest in front of him, Jiang Hai was also looking upward, and sure enough, with his gaze.

In this forest, several black shadows were standing on top of the treetops at this time, and several pairs of fierce eyes were staring at Jiang Hai and them. (To be continued.) )
