Hey all, this thread really needs some pics, but my bleheri will not play ball so you will have to do with my description...until you guys post some....!!

I bought my Ch. Bleheri around 12 weeks ago....he was a dark purple colour in the LFS, but I thought that was the proper colour for a Ch. Bleheri as I had never seen one before. He is still really dark purple in colour, so dark you can not see any pattern.

Now I have found a whole bunch at another store labelled as Bleheri.....completly different colour.....much lighter with really distinct patterning. Have I been sold a different species of snakehead....!!??

Any pics of your Bleheris for comparison would be appreciated.....as soon as I can get one of Gordon I will!

Hi,

this is Heiko Bleher (C. bleheri discoverer...) and I just posted some text on the fish which has my name elsewhere, have a look. There is also the correct picture, so you should have no problem to identify which one you have.

All the very best

always kindest regards from a collector,

Heiko Bleher
