the devil gang (Bagarius, maybe ID need?!)

[fugupuff]

Do you know what country these came from? Im' guessing Thailand area right? the greener one, looks a bit like yarelli, there is a chance that it may be, the yellow one, I'd call it rutilus

nice bagarius.

Do you know what country these came from?

no, sorry I don't figured that out.
But Thailand is probably right...


Do you really think the "orange ones" are rutilus?
Aren't yarellis sometimes orange coloured, too?
So the yarelli (if they're right...) on this page is very orange coloured;

And that can't be a rutilus, because it's origin is "Ramganga, India".
Rutilus are only from Vietnam, right?
This big one is named as B. yarelli, too:

If that's right, that would be another example for more orange coloured yarelli's. But if you're right, this big goonch must be a rutilus because of it's very orange body.
My three orange ones haven't a more intensive colouration.

In spite of all that there's a strong difference between my smaller orange bagarius and the bigger, grey/green one...

 

[Lepisosteus platyrhincus]

you got a few species.
maybe 1 yarelli, not sure rest

 

[channarox]

im sure you have B.bagarius in there.

I think the largest is a b.bagrius. I would be scared of owning a goonch lol.

 

[MikeS]

well I thought it's easier to discuss about the species, if you see a pic of every goonch.
I attached one group pic of all 4 and a portrait of each bagarius.
So we can give them numbers from 1 to 4

sorry for the quality...

 

[Eric A]

Number 2 looks sweet! IDK about IDs tho. Sorry.

 

[channarox]

number one is not a bagarius bagarius.
number three might be one...

Ithink the greyish one is a yarelli, the other is eithera suchus or a rutilus, not sure which. They look great either way.
