The Goonch of christmas:)

[Skyeboy]

Well as always i went over board. The goonch has always been my favorite fish. Ive had bad luck in the past. This time im doing a dedicated tank to them. This is my christmas present to myself. The streamers and fins on the biggest one are unreal! Perfect. The 2 bigger 7-8" ones are said to be yarelli from thailand the smaller is said to be a b. Bagarius from thailand. Hoping the goonch experts will chime in here. Tank is at ph of 7.4 water temp 75. I have 2 airstones and 2 power heads.

Thanks! I think aquascaping really brings the tank to life. I may have to do away with rocks as food gets lost in the cracks
