The false tig that was housed w/ this obscura (far left in the back, in 3rd pic) were both nearly the same size,,, the obscura pretty much almost de-skinned that juruense!!

Obscura also got along with rays fine... bigger ones and lil' teacups too.

I totally forgot about this thread
Ill have to go back today to get a shot of the lil guy out of the bag

It looks pretty darn close to this guy

But it is a Channa thou, right?

Not an expert on Snakeheads but Africans are in a different family than Channidae, although I thought Africans look more like Bowfins. But the only illegal Snakeheads in the US are Channids, good news I guess
