KBL vs Nile Perch

16-05-2010, 09:13 PM

Just to share my 2 fishes

Is the Perch purchased 2 weeks ago really worth $48 compared to my yesterday's acquired $6 KBL?

Compare the fishes and share your opinion

Both looks alike.

Btw, the normal KBL eyes also in red color right?

I like the way they eat, can hear the "pok pok" sound.

Bought from Blk 217(dont know the name) opposite of Shunqun Sec Sch in Jurong East Ave1 and its about 4 inch

A word of caution

, the state of the Kims down there is not so good with sunken stomach but maybe its a norm when its not fed. I chose quite a nice piece actually

The difference between kim and nile perch is the dorsal fin and the body pattern. Plus nile perch can grow to a much colossus size than the kim if given the space and diet.

Bro thanks for the photo , it was kim that i saw at aquastar and chongpang , condition quite good , just when to check on them yesterday .

I think the background of the tank play a part too.

Mine perch keep in a black oyama tank, look very stable, but always shows deep copper color

I don't know why
