thanks for the comments...

just an update...

the 2 of them are currently on a 24hr buffet of baby mollies now...

they certainly eat alot and digest quickly... all the feeders from yesterday were gone when i got back earlier.

seems like you have to go LFS stock up your supply everyday!

Cool indeed. I didn't mean to be a doubter, just that there are so many goliaths out there that always seem to be something else. I am by no means an expert on them.

its cool.

i was a doubter too when i heard tt there were stock of these guys.

Only after looking at them in the flesh and comparing them w a vittatus was i confident of their ID. :)

Probably dumb to say but since your in Asia you probably do have a Goliath since it seems like you guys get the best pick of the pack before it reaches state side =-(

Everytime I see a picture of Goliaths 4-sale it's always a Fishstore in either Japan, Indonesia or somewhere in ASIA.

Would be interesting to see them about 8+" or so. It seems that they develope that more squared out snout oppose to the pointy Vittatus.

Nice pick up :grinyes:

actually they are rare here too.

and this shipment was only 5-6 pces. The last shipment was a yr plus back. So they arent exactly the best of the litter.

from my observations so far, it would be interesting to see the 2 goliaths grow as one of them eats an insane amt of food while the other just eats as per normal.

So i wld prob get 2 goliaths w diff body builds later on. One fat one and a slim one.

They already have a much more blocky jaw than vittatus at this size. Teeth already very visible at a size of 3 inches.
