Channa stewartii arrived :D

Hi!! so my channa stewartii has arrived today.. finally

I have made a setup in a 720 liters tank, with lots of wood and plants. floating plants as well. So t think the tank should be quite well for them.

They have a size about 10-13 cm, so i figure they are about a year old, maybe.....

I was just wondering if anyone had an idea of how old they can get in a aquarium ??

There is very little data on how long they live. My oldest channa is 5-6 years old still and still very healthy and active. I suspect that they can live a long time.

At 10-13cm they are still very young, most likly fry born this spring/ early summer. So with proper care you can enjoy them for many years.

Ok!! good to hear that they'll probably live a long time then
