I noticed the other day on youtube that there was alot of videos showing these giant snakeheads shoved in these tanks that were clearly to small to keep them so i just wanted to spread the word that these fish if anyone wnats to own them should be able to give a proper home to these guys and ill show an example of my snakehead in my pond

well done man. i don't believe channa micropeltes dipplograma or marulius should be kept in tanks any less than 300 gallons. so kudos to you on properly housing such an awesome fish
 
Nice snakehead and what size is that pond btw? Just curious...

I love watching snakeheads eat :)

Here's a cool vid of a snakehead eating a 10" bass...This snakehead isn't housed as good as yours though :( & I realized that the snakehead in this vid wasn't really hungry but instead was just probably looking for a fight... :headbang2

I saw the video a couple months ago and there are two problems first he bass was an illegal size to catch and the snakehead is in the same tank and it's now a meter long and the guy refuses to move it to another tank and my pond is 8m by 10
