Channa Blue Pulchra

[Eii]

Hello peeps, I need tips and help about keeping a blue pulchra. So here's my questions

Do it need aerator?
What's the best tank size for it?
What kind of filter should I use?
What substrate should I use?
needs to be planted?

Ps: Sorry for many questions, for I am new to keeping snakeheads.

Tbh I have no clue. They're illegal in most states here in the USA. I wanted one so bad when I got my tank lol was tempted to go fishing down in Louisiana bbbuuuttt that's a federal offense.

There "maybe" a state or two where they're legal with a permit but I'm probably wrong. I have a feeling they're nationally illegal.

Too my knowledge it's one of those "basically illegal" things, it's legal to possess a live one but it's illegal to transport, sell, or buy one, so no real way to get one into your "possession". This applies to MD and Virginia.
