Goonch Catfish (Bagarius) ID and Care Guide 1.01

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Eyes appear to be round and my opinion would be yarrelli to the old naming choices. Agree that it’s not b.b as mentioned and imo it’s not the dwarf.

I really appreciate the respond. Yeah the eye is super round . Really praying its the yarrelli / LLG

bro i really wish it is not the dwarf. coz i heard rumours that the dwarf type also come from india , but according to planetcatfish and other sources the dwarf only inhabits vietnam/indochina river. any opinion would be very much appreciated,.
 
Now that’s an interesting one. Shape and compression say suchus , however I would say whiskers should be thicker and patterning suggests not suchus.
imo I would still go b. Suchus but would be interested what C Chicxulub thinks.

This is another view of the Bagarius I picked up a few weeks ago .
I'm thinking maybe Suchus ?

Hello,
No definitely not suchus. Suchus has a very flat body shape, almost like a stingray. Either b. bagarius or b. yarelli. maybe even rutilius but dont know much about that type.

It was Rutilus I was thinking of not Suchus my mistake.
It came in as Yarelli but doesn't look like my previous Y. Though that might have been something else And this is indeed Yarelli.
Thanks for the reply .
