Talking Chinese trade name for fishes can be very interesting... 747

For this fish... you probably can understand why they call it 747

... the way they "park" and "fly"

Nice specimen there! I've gotten a piece as well.
Are they generally more active and hardy than a B.juruense?

This is my second Goslinia and I find that they are more or less the same as B.juru except they are harder to be MP train.

In fact, I took the smallest of all. Find that this specimen is in "better" shape.
