I just ordered a Goonch Catfish (Bargarius Yarelli) today from Rare Fish, I kind of splurged on the sudden availability of such a rare cat. Could I get some advice on care requirements such as p.h, temp, diet, etc?
So, I bought a Goonch...

You do know how big those can get right? lol...although they don't get as big in home aquaria, they can probably still reach past the 3 foot length mark. I'm guessing their diet is smaller fish, frozen foods, krill, shrimp, pellets & flake food, worms and stuff like that. Doubt they're picky eaters...
do you mind sharing how much you paid? there's one sitting at a LFS here over the last 8-9 months for 69.99
Ya, I guess you got a point there...this ones 10 inches. Its a pretty rare catfish though, I would buy it but they grow to be MONSTERS
Heres a 9" for $250....http://www.aquascapeonline.com/aquatic-live-stock-fresh-water-fish-catfish-devil-cat/
i see aquascape is using the same sales pitch that my lfs is using, quoting river monsters. there's a pic of the one jeremy wade caught on the tank
