anyone?!? i have noticed one thing if anyone else out there has one and needs info. the guy who works at wes' let me catch mine. and i picked out the lightest shade of brown. (looks close to the korean perch) but as soon as i netted him. he turned all black. i guess he was stressed but i noticed today. as the water tempature got cooler. he got lighter and lighter again relaxing. if anyone has more info please share.
Valid name is Coreoperca Whiteheadi, fishbase.org has minimal info. Not sure how big these guys get, if they are similar to the S. Chuatsi, then that would be about 2 feet, but total lenght is not recorded. As with any "baby" fish, their instinct is to hide from big predators. And they get bolder as they get bigger :) Nice pick up.
 
hahaha one day wes. ima get a korean one(i mean i have to right?? im korean). but i think after about 2 weeks and the tank is cycled for sure ima come get 3 or 4 more of the chinese perchs. please dont run out wes!!!! or am i gonna have to reserve some??
