Malawi barracuda

Great fish. I have had one for several months now. Super active but actually quite peaceful with the other fish.

He’s awesome!! I’ve read they’re very peaceful and that seems to be the case so far with mine as well.
How big is yours now?

This is a guess as I am not near the fish but maybe 6-7 inches. Got him from Beantown Aquatics.

Nice, my male is just under 6” and the female about 4.5”. Looks like yours eats well lol gotta fatten mine up a bit

I feed my tank pellets exclusively. Absolute frenzy at feeding time. The Cuda eats well. Lol. The only fish that seems to have some issues with the Cuda is my Eye Biter but even that has settled down over time.

I can see eye biters seeing the cuda as a similar looking fish. Mine are on pellets as well but they’re the only haps in this tank, the other fish are 3 bichirs ( I know, weird combo) so when I fed the bichirs, the cuda seemed to like the fresh fish too
