Can snakeheads die like this

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Lol i'm sorry about some of my posts being weird but I'm new to the aggressive freshwater fish world so I just have questions. The reason why I asked this is because there was this dude on Youtube who supposedly had a 18 in. Dovii kill his 20 in. Giant snakehead. :(
it would be interesting to say the least. I would think a dovii would cause some massive internal damage if it had the room in a tank. On the reverse side of that, a micro would also be extremely devastating if it had room to work.
 
Yes.

If denied access to the air long enough they can drown. Another fish can't hold them down like that though , thats just sounds ridiculous .

Under stress snakeheads will just sit lethargically and if the issue that's stressing them doesn't get resolved it'll eventually die.

It's much more likely that this is what happened to that guys fish. Improper care or illness gone unchecked and it just laid their until dead . It's sad what some people do to their fish .

I have heard of large rays holding other fish down and killing them as they try to eat them.

I've seen that happen, in fact. But you'd need quite the ray to hold a Micro down. ;)
 
....or for the micro to be rather small.

18 in is not exactly small. :P
But I must admit I made it unclear I was talking about the aforementioned Micro!

Right and I was being hypothetical.

Your response darn there knocked me out the chair.
