I think that RTGG and GG/EEGG problem is that there all individuals and some are mean and nasty and others aren't, and as there keepers one either has too be prepare to handle the handle what there dealt or more on too something less stressful. I see people throughout the many forms talking about there Jag's or there Tiger Shovelnose Cats, or better yet that they would love to have snakeheads, people if you can't deal with the troubles that come with RTGG, EEGG or GG then please stay the heck away from Snakeheads, Redtail Cats, Jag's, Arowana's, Arapiama's, Bowfins, or anyother fish that either has teeth or grows larger than a TV remote.
Yes I am guilty of trying to sell my RTGG, or debating on whether to stirfry them. But yet I still have them, because everywhere I go, recently from NY to FL retail shops and wholesale places, I have yet to see a pr of RTGG that have the same amount of contrast between strong rich red against dark bluish-grey/grey background as one pair of the two pair that I have. I have had many different fish specimens, with the largest tank being the one I presently have 180G. If the truth be known I would prefer too have a 1600G custom tank with Marine Inverts and a handful of Clownfish, that is my dream tank, not turning my swimming pool into a Arapiama tank or some other behemoth fish too be me that is truely BORING.
If people read the giant gourami thread they would understand how much of a potential pain these fish can be especially for Tequila who has(as you can tell from the previous post) been driven to the brink of madness trying to decide to keep, sell or eat his GGs.
Seriously, a swimming pool full of gigas would be so cool, imagine hosting a party and worlds most annoying person turns up and spends the whole time boring you you death about which pattern of carpet excites them, you could just push them in.
Only as a experiment just to see what happens
