5 Channa Bleheri in 55 galon tank

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Are Channa Bleheri pack type for because my bleheri are always trying to scare each other away... And when the bleheri have black spotting on it's tail does that mean it's male?
 
Dwarf channa are never entirely peaceful with one another unless a pair forms. Then the pair will be peaceful with one another and will probably eliminate any others in the tank. I have 6 sp. "assam" in the same tank and there's always a bit of chasing going on but there's never any actual physical damage...so far. I haven't heard about black spotting being a way of sexing beleheri, it's generally based around the female having a slightly thicker body and the male being more aggressive....
 
How big do bleheri have to be to be consider adults? i have one that is 2.5 inchs 3 that are 3 inchs and one that is 3.5 inchs

How many times should i feed these little buggers a day, they always seem like they are hungry. I would also like to know if i should put that salt to help with there gills and stuff, will it harm them in any way, or will it make a healthier environment?

all Channa species they are intollerant of salt and even small ammounts can kill them
 
What should i be feeding these 5 little buggers to ensure they get the nicest colours and grow big and strong :thumbsup: . I am currently feeding them krill, frozen squid, frozen blood worms, frozen misquito larva and live ghost shrimp. What else do they need?

Lets say salt was added as a mistake, is their any way to remove that salt? Or do you just wait it out with the occasional water change?
Thanks
