Can i comm my WAL with channas...??

[naser90096]

hi bros/sis, juz wondering if i can comm my 13" WAL with a 8" channa aurant, 5" channa striata & 2X 5" channa micropeltis..? Planned to put them in a 3x2x2ft tank which the channas are already occupying ...

would that be a gd idea..??

hi
tank way to small bro.

Up the tank to at least 5x3x2 to pull this off.

Aggression would then be your next issue to fix, unless Snakehead aggression can quell Afro Lung aggression.

bros, tank too small for now or when they grow bigger..?? thought of upgrading the tank size after a few months when they are bigger...

 

[AU_Arowana-RG]

With the number of fish, I still think it's still small. Unless your willing to clean the tank often, it will probably only be fine for 3 months at most.

 

[naser90096]

wow!! 3 months only ... OK, i'll put them together this weekend when i'm home to monitor more closely ... hope the comm works .... might remove the 2 micropeltis ...

naser..bro...watch out for the "feet" of the lung yea? the channas may go for em.
by the way...we've met b4...hahaha

Your lungfish will probably kill everything in that tank. Tank is way too small too and if the micropeltes will survive and grow similar size with the lungfish. Then that lungfish is toast unless the snakehead won't see it as food.

sadly my aurant & leucistic striata had died due to bacterial infection ...

it will end badly dont do it IMO...channas are agrressive WAL are to slow to prevent the attack plus they got their legs to look after it will not be good
