Difference In Male and Female Channa Pleuropthalma?

[WhiteLineRacer]

Baby and year old pics tell all.

Although I had no idea how to tell them apart as babies. One thing that's worth noting is that the female is slowly over the past five months getting more blue on her ????

Gorgeous pics of the Channa P! Now u're making me really desperate to get them...... How many months till the male start showing the blue?

about 6 / 7 if i remember

Not too bad, 6 or 7 months. U keeping the Channa P's with any other fishes? Cause i was thinking of pumping the Channa P after i pick it up. Then i wanna comm the fella with an atf, red ace, hujeta n payara. The Channa will add lots of colour to the tank, dats for sure. Wat do u feed them n how bout agression wise?

 

[WhiteLineRacer]

I feed them bloodworm . prawns, wax worms (as a treat) and cockles.

They are not agressive... yet

Yup, kept other sh's before, diet's all bout the same, similar to wat u feed. Two more days till i pick up the Channa P, juz can't wait. I juz hope it's the male, dat i pick, keepings both fingers crossed. Guess aggression wise, i'll leave it to fate. Thanks WhiteLineRacer.
