Not me, wels are beasts, plus you can keep them outside.

I've had both, wels for sure. Love it, wallago are just as awesome.

Goonch are less active than tigs, I got rid of both of these even though they were nice to look at.

Thanks for all the posts! But the big goonch i was eyeing died

I was told that goonches that dont eat upon export eventually die. That was the case with the goonch i wanted. For the wels,, i have yet to decide) im really leaning towards the goonch now. I already haveacouple of attus and leeriis and id pretty much get the same with a wels:/ but the goonch is just so bad ass! I guess my cat collection will be on hold for now (but hopefully not for lonng)

On another news... Theres a vundu fornsale)) around 400$ for 12"?

In that case I'd go Vundu over wels. Hard choice though.

I'd love to have a Vundu but I can't.

Hmm, I wonder if walking cats are illegal in all of the US or if that's just a Florida thing...? To Google!
