About the Golden Climbing Perch

Name: Golden Climbing Perch (Anabas testudineus – gold morph)

Max Size: Up to 12 inches

Water Parameters: pH 6.5-7.5, temperature 72-82Β°F, hardness 5-15 dGH

Diet: Omnivorous – enjoys a wide range of foods including pellets, flakes, live and frozen foods such as insects, worms, shrimp, and small fish. May also eat plant material and detritus in the wild.

Temperament: Semi-aggressive and territorial, especially as they mature. Best kept alone or with other large, robust fish that can hold their own.

Tank Setup: Requires a spacious tank with plenty of hiding spots using driftwood, rocks, and dense plants. A tight-fitting lid is essential, as this species can breathe atmospheric air and may try to escape. Moderate water movement and strong filtration are recommended.

Compatibility: Best kept alone or with other large, peaceful-to-semi-aggressive species. Avoid smaller fish that could be viewed as food or more aggressive species that might provoke conflict.

Behavior: Intelligent and curious, the Golden Climbing Perch is capable of breathing air using its labyrinth organ and can survive out of water for short periods. It may become bold and interactive with its environment and keeper.

Fun Fact: The Climbing Perch is famous for its ability to "walk" short distances over land using its pectoral fins in search of new water sources. The golden morph is a selectively bred variety prized for its unique coloration and rarity in the aquarium hobby.

Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) I’ve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
