Hello! I caught this guy in a drainage in my backyard (using normal pole and earthworm bait) some time ago. Idk what type of snakehead is this. I'd like to try keeping a snakehead (its legal in my country), if I catch another one, so can you teach me how to take care of this fish? I mean, what its food, water condition and such.
P.s. sorry for my bad english, not my native languageIMG-20170216-WA0004_1.jpg
