Hi ,
I'm probably wrong but it looks to me like a very stressed Channa Species going under the trade name of " Ice and Fire", just because of the bright Orange all around the eye.

Lookee here for comparason

:eek::eek:.. Damn:irked:.. fishshop keeper fooled me.. Grrrrrrrrrr:irked::irked:.. Thx bro for info, now i know that not c.bleheri.... :)..
 
mate if he is correct and its a fire and ice, get it, esp if its at bleh prices, you will be very lucky
 
Definitely a channa sp fire and ice, as i myself have witnessed specimens of these species up close before.

Bleheri prices are almost 1/10 the price of a channa sp fire and ice species, may cost more depending on where you are located.

What are you waiting for TS..go get it!!!

:):).. i buy it Rp.325.000, u can callculate that. that shop have more 5 - 7 stok fish.. :):)
 
Yup defo Fire and Ice.
Very aggressive little Becoming a little more popular now, so buy if you like it not for the "rareness" to sell on.

Once in good water and settled they looki lovely. Thought to max out at around 25cm.
 
Thats a great price for these species. I remember them to cost me twice the amount you paid for a few months back.

From what i observed they seem to require pretty cool water to thrive around 24 deg and below.
