Snakehead with Synodontis Eupterus?

[Karl K]

I have a 140 Gal..

Is there any Channa species that can live with Syndontis Eupterus. (3 Synodontis Eupterus all around 10 - 13 cm)

Temperament can vary from Channa to Channa, but even the dwarf species will be capable of doing great damage to the catfish. I would advise against it.

I agree

Hi,I also agree-

It can be 50-50 for both. I kept both fish in the past and both did not do well. If the snakehead is aggressive it will tear apart the syno but at night the catfish will likely to rasp on the slime of the snakehead. I had 3 feather fin syno before and they kept on rasping on my emperor snakehead's skin. They like the taste of snakehead slime somehow.

It sounds like a terrible combo.. Im definetly not gonna do it.
