LOL i ment to say NO


my bad
 
When you are talking about the aggressive Snakehead, it is definitely the Giant Snakehead and the Northern Snakehead. But the Giant Snakehead, Channa Micropeltes is the most largest and aggressive of all Channa species. I would definitely go with the Giant Snakehead.

I know some think that the Giant Snakehead is overrated, they think that this species is nothing more than another predatory fish, they think that the Giant Snakehead is described and praised and kept at a position more than where the Predator truly stands or more than it deserves. Just like you have a story and proof to tell that this predator is not as aggressive as it was described, the more people out there to tell you that this predator is actually as vicious and aggressive as it was said to be. Those stories that you hear are not a hoax just like the story that you have to tell isn't as well.

But I am not here to say that the Giant Snakehead is the most strongest predatory fish in the world. My pick is definitely the Giant Snakehead whom I consider as the T-Rex of the fresh water! :thumbsup: below are a picture of the Giant Snakehead and a few of the Northern Snakeheads / Channa Argus.

imHo red/giant sh are aggressive
 
:thumbsup:
 
My red snakehead was the most aggressive fish I've ever seen. It would attack anything you put in the tank as soon as it hit the water. It would even thrash around at your finger against the glass.

That was the last time I had fish like 12 years ago. And this time I bought a wolf fish because people told me it's even more aggressive than a SH, but I've seen no evidence of it. I'll wait until it grows up, but so far the SH was 10x more aggressive and ferocious.


rayman - btw - apart from red devils and wolf fish etc :D does your SH have a staple diet of dead food? Like beefheart, shrimp etc?
 
only touches live food

nothing dead

I would also have to say snakehead. i read about some1 had 1 and it ripped an oscar in half
:D
 
you're kidding me? How hard have you tried to get it onto dead stuff?

The SH I had loved feeders of course, but would also snap up anything fresh and meaty that was dead.
