Rescued this one from a marine biologist of all people. He's the original owner and has had it for around 10 years+. It has been in a 55gallon for the last couple years (used to be in a smaller tank) and has been fed nothing but grapes (yes grapes) for the last year or two. He's easily 17-18"TL. I hope I can heal up the HITH and whatever else might be wrong with him.
Any suggestions on what a good diet would be to get him on would be? Right now he resides in a 130gallon 72"x18"24" where he can actually turn around! I'm not sure what kind of giant gourami he is. He looks like what I've seen called "red tail giant gourami" but he has no red. Right now I've got a 6" regular pink one that I've been growing out but couldn't see this one go to some random kid on craigslist just for the free tank. Heres his future tankmate.
