Have had both. Tig are more active. Goonch is harder to get. Having had both, I would get both...lol...I just gotta find a tig again....lol..
But honestly you should look at your tank space, biggest tank you can have, tankmates, ect. That will likely tell you to pick up a tig.

I have both. Both fairly inactive and love high current. Tig is prettier but Goonch is more badass looking imo. Really depends on tank space cuz my goonches grow a lot faster than my tig with the goonches now at 17-18" and the tig around 10" after 1 year
Goonch, usually, is a specialty fish. Highly demanding of water quality. Sensitive. Plagued with sudden unexplained death syndrome. Over the years of reading, I think goonch is #1 for sudden deaths and AFAIK, we still don't know why. There is a good thread here about it.
One big reason I've never kept one.

Tig is only going to go up in value as it gets bigger. And going to be easy to find a quick buyer.
