You need to prevent the fish from being frightened so it won't swallow the eggs

I keep the pair in a 100x40x50 cm tank, Woods, plants, substrate, a coconut with a hole, mayhem they got afraid when we open the Door to the room... the last time I was doing a waterchange-i don't often do waterchanges to my channas-, when I was putting the new water I noticed that the male was incubating, so obviously he swallow the eggs, now I need the water become more old to them breed again, later I send the tank setup to some tips, i studied how breed with the Indonesians, but of course, most of them don't keep well the channas

Keeping snakeheads does not require frequent water changes. Changing the water will frighten them and swallow their eggs

There is no need to change the water when raising snakeheads. Especially during breeding. The next breeding season is coming. Hope to see your fish baby
