snakehead body width

[jacks]

what would be the approximate width of say a bleheri snakehead when fully grown, i know they are generally 6 to 8 inches in length, and would this fish only attack fish it can eat in one go or is it just as happy ripping a fish to pieces like the micropeltes

and what types of fishes would bleheri attack when fully grown

thks

Bleheri will grow to like thick cigar thicness.
They are not very aggresive for snakeheads, and will most likely take small feeder fish like guppies.

You are best to try get them onto pellets though, as live food can cause nightmares.

Just make sure the tank is completely covered as they are great jumpers.

Here is a pic of one of my breeding pair: (he is an adult now at around 7")
