Unfortunately that is to be expected , to pair them you'll need a group of 5-6 the younger the better, if your lucky a pair will form from the group , unfortunately the others will likly be killed very quickly when that happens.
Introducing a single mate almost always results in an instant death match . Channa require that competition for a pair to form. Make sure their is plenty if space and hiding places and the temperature should ideally be on the lower end of the spectrum to lessen agression.

Need more plants if you're going for any channa.
Buying 5-6 young is almost a must have.
I got lucky as I bought two, that didn't pair off, but instantly did the second I added two more aurantis. Such is life, competition is what channas need, that is unfortunate for low budgets since that usually means the majority of your freshly bought fishes end up dying or having to be rehoused, but it is indeed the only way.
