Khaki Grunter,
Like a mini Sooty Grunter
Sweet haven't heard of them before. Lots of cool and rare Hephaestus grunters in PNG.

Thanks,it is certainly a nice looking fish for the book cover.
Grunters are awesome! Currently tracking down a Coal Grunter, and possibly some Barcoos. One day I might find the incredibly rare Kimberly Grunter.

I did have a Hephaestus Carbo years ago.

Coalies used to be cheap but it looks like Ausyfish hasn't breed them for a few years, have only seen the old large one available.
Live fish had them on sale for $9.95 years ago so I grew up 4 with my Africans before moving on.
I currently have an IBC with 6 Spangled Perch/Grunter I recently caught, trying to get them onto pellets.

Should hopefully be getting some from the joint ANGFA and ANGFA NSW field trip to FNQ in September if i can go.
IBC ponds! A classic diy pond, I’m thinking about trying Texas Cichlids outside in one of them. Those spangs will soon become one spang.
