NEW FISH: ELEPHANT EAR GIANT GOURAMI

[Eric A]

Very nice. A LFS of mine has something VERY similar. Every time I go there I keep thinking it's a GG but I don't know jack about them. and they don't have a price listed on him. but he look so similar to what you have. Good luck with this guy.

Grab him, grow him out, and find out.

Hi Bro .. I have one pc in my pond. Its a red tail given by my friend. It's about 10-11" now. When i'm still a kid i kept the albino one (a little bit pink in colour) & the old type which is grey in colour.

This fish is not aggressive & very playfull. I'll send a photo of my fish later. It's cheap over here ! Around USD1 to USD2 for Albino @ 3-4" size & USD 20 - USD30 for red tail one at the same size.

Heres a couple of new pix. He eats loads (no suprise there) and is doing very well.

Most obvious difference is that yours lacks the eyespot just forward of the caudal peduncle.

Nice exodon. Makes me wish I never gave mine up. Mine loved strawberries, white grapes, and kiwi (among other produce). Good luck in raising yours.

I guess we'll find out with time, and with it being a GG it shouldnt take long
