They are doing really well, I am just getting them used to their surrondings for the time being. I am feeding them mussels, shrimp,worms and fish. I will see what I can do on the full tank shot! ;)

****ing HELL ash, those things are beautiful. You are now lord channa.
These are even more impressive than the original barca video I saw of them in the bare display. Truly exquisite looking fish.
Seeing these up-close photos like this confirms my belief that they are really more beautiful than an auranti. More subtle, but more beautiful. That light concrete grey with mottled brown is unreal. Their head/body shape and fins too.
I am glad they are doing fine, it looks like the cloudy eyes have gone.
Do you know the true max size for these beauties?
Hell yes!!! Makes me green everytime I see one of you pics.
Really good pics, As said before you are "Lord Channa".
I have always thought Barca were more beutiful than Aurantis, I think I like the more subtle colouring too.
Max size for these guys is about 36" i think, they are towards the larger end of the snakehead scale.
that is one beautiful fish.
that is one beautiful fish.
Two :)
