i have a question on how fast they grow and i am looking for another sh that will only grow 16 inches max and looks good if you have any pics of them that would be great but any other infor about them would be appriciated thank you all in advance
asiatica ,aurantimaculata ,lucius,
pleurophthalma, Parachanna obscura, all good medium sized channa ,pics can be found in either show your snakeheads thread or one of the channa info threads .
red grow very quickly at 1st then slow right down around the 1.5ft mark
when you say south american what exacly are we talking about , most south american but not all are slowish growers esp. compared to a red sh. its only going to be months poss 6 max depending on the individual fish before sh thinks i can fit that in my mouth and either eat it ,or kill it trying to eat it
