B. Yarelli

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
75-76. Keep all my setups there, even my rays. Had a tig at one time but my rays used it as a chew toy when it was 10"
 
Thanks, According to Wes, and I trust in his ID and importing it is Yarelli from India (LLG),
Smaller is Rutilus from Thailand.... from Rapps as B. Bagarius but we have decided its Rutilus NOT B. Bagarius.
 
How big is it? It looks more like an hlg than an llg to me, but it really depends on its size. It's hard to tell for sure when they're less than 10". Hate to break it to ya also but if your ruti is smaller, it'll never catch up in size. IME, the Indians, both hlg and llg, have a much faster growth rate than ruti's. The difference is like atf's and armatus.
 
The Yarelli is Indian from Wes. So taking him at his word.
The one we called a Ruti is from Rapps, sold as B. Bagarius but from Thailand. Thus the reason that I, Rob and Russ all determined it a Ruti. That and some other visual traits. Jeff seems to think B. Bagarius reach as for as Thailand. What do you see to call the Yarelli a HLG
Any opinions you have are appreciated, these are my first goonches.
Yearelli is appx 8-9 inches, Ruti/ B. Bagarius is now a solid 5"
