I know that snakeheads have a special breathing system that permits them to breath atmospheric air,So I would just like to ask if it is a big plus if I'm gonna put an airpump in my aquarium for an aeration?:confused:

they dont need additional aeration like some fish do,just as long as you have sufficient bio filtration and a tight fitting cover glass to stop escapes and so that the air they breathe is warm:)

in my experience it wont make any difference to your snakeheads although it wouldn't hurt i guess:)
