Hello,
I have recently bought a Lipor Snakehead, he is about 3.5 inches - 4 inches long. I was actually looking for a channa ornatipinnis when we bought the Lipor, and i am looking to swap for a c. ornatipinnis. The Lipor is a strong, nicely marked channa and has a large head on him compared to his body. He gets on well with my other channas and he is very healthy. The Lipor is a rare, new species and does not have a scientific name yet.

If there is anyone who would like to swap their c. ornatipinnis for my Lipor please post back with pictures if possible.

I am from merseyside and am willing to travel within reason.

Thanks, Danny
 
Here are the pics but i cant see any way of getting to you

The last pic has my Pulchra on the right, my channa blerehi at the very back and an ornate bichir next to the blerehi which has now gone back to the shop.
