I think there is always a market for big and unusal fish species. But it's a niche market.
For one thing only the most enthusiastic fish keepers are willing to splash the cash and give their living room over to the enormous tanks necessary to keep these fish.

Personally, I'd have scaped it and filled it with Tetras 😎

Hope they never open them patio doors

Ok, just back from the same shop - they are selling Tarpon?????

Like keeping a few chickens on a small holding I suppose, keep it as a feature fish till it gets too large, then it's Caribbean Tarpon baking time...…



Looks tasty, takes a while to remove the bones though...
