This makes me laugh at the fact that more than one of my LFS' openly sell arowana.

Not all Arowanas are illegal. The silver arowanas I believe are the Australian ones. The Asian Arowana is on the endangered species list and I think that is why that specific one is illegal. The guy was not smuggling the fish for himself most likely. He can sell them for $5,000 - 8,000 each.
