[bcchen]

nope. illegal in US. trust me i tried hard on the internet. no such luck. i need to know some oldman in chinatown that has some underground aquarium of these fishes.

whats so special about these fish?

[bcchen]

they're huge and they look like dragons. chinese superstition says they bring good luck etc... but that's not the real reason i want it. i just think it looks damn cool and would look nice in an aquarium. hehhe

my old college roomie is a fish fanatic, i'm sure he'll know. i'll ask him for you.

billy, all u have to do is show this pic to an asian fish store and they'll find it for u at a low cost. Or u can also purchase those smaller ones (babies) and they grow supppper fast. Plus if u buy it from a fish store, they give u free lil fishies to feed it. Check the 626 area: alhambra, san gabriel, monterey park...

If you were on the East I can get you one easily. Not sure if they're deliverable via FedEx/UPS?

i dunno, if caught, the feds might get involved. its so silly that they're not allowed in the US. o well. i swear its like im freakin askin for illegal drugs. its just a fish... hehe
