Just picked up a goonch from a local importer. It's an early Christmas gift from my family. The importer said he had been feeding it live goldfish and he ate the most out of the two he had. Anyone have tips for breaking them off of live. I know this is the wrong section but the forum is kinda broke, so it will be more easily viewed here until the forum is back up. But until then, enjoy. I'm calling him
El diablo = The Devil

Nice cat. I appreciate this particular catfish. Not sure about breaking off of live food. Sorry!

Once he is settled in don't feed for 3 days or so then try massivore mix with a little NLS with garlic in it. It should take that, nice fish also!

In regards to getting off live.... Only guy i know who has had the most success with that is a buddy of mine. He goes by the sn awesome on here. Ill let him know to post any tips he can on here.
