Brand NEW Channa Aurantimaculata!!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
thanks for the info jelly. I've got 2 out of 4 of my favourite channas. the stewartii and the auranti. All i need know is the pleuro and a barca. But the barca is NEVER gonna happen. Unless ashdavid breeds them and sends a couple my way :D
Congrats on the new snakehead!:drool: I just got myself two auranti's too, but yours look great! Get some pics when they are in their tank.

I will see what I can do about the barca's!:naughty: If I can't get any breeding out 4 fish, I will kick my own ***!:cry:
 
they look great, nice pic up
 
'im feeding them on mealworms gut loaded with Hikari carnivore pellets, frozen hikari bloodworms, hikari freeze dried shrimp soaked in a fish vitamin liquid, live ghost shrimp gut loaded with hikari carnivore pellets. Yes i do like hikari. Make good quality stuff

Thanks ashdavid. GOOD LUCK on the breeding of the barcas. I can't wait to see more pics of them.

thanks people. I'm soooo happy i finally got my hands on a pair. I'm pretty sure they're both males.

I read on snakeheads.org that they'll only grow to 19cm. However stotty you said yours was 14". I take it snakeheads.org is wrong?

How can you tell if it is a male or female at that size? Can you tell if this one is male or female?

Beautiful fish, exoticfish! :cool-1: Very hard to tell at that size, but from those pics, I'm thinking more a male, but i don't know??... the head shape is kind of throwing me off?? Hmm... we'll just have to wait and see!?? ;)
