Shortbody Goonch

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Looks like the indochina variant and the 3rd shortbody I’ve seen in the last month. This will be the new thing being pumped out of Asia. Hope you didn’t pay that much.
 
Most definitely. That and won’t move whilst your watching, turn away, look back and the fish is in a different spot and the food has gone. Masters of it.
I saw mine eat but that's only because I'm hella paranoid when it comes to my Goonch because I've had bad luck with them. So, I enticed and watched to make sure they're eating. My current Albino Goonch is very food aggressive. Took food from tongs originally and now knows the cues of feeding. Powerheads and filter go off, the hood raises and he's on the move. Feverishly skimming the top and scaring me because he often hits the glass canopy. Keep worrying he'll hurt himself.

Do you both feed everyday?

I like short body fish that are rare. I already have a gold goonch so when I saw 2 other short bodies hit the market I put mine up for sale (didnt seem as rare as I was hopping) lol but mine is by far the largest others are 16 inches and smaller. mine is 22-23. If it doesnt sell I will be happy to keep it just not as rare as I thought and hard to manage with my other fish at his current size.
