What type of channa is this?

[Madou]

Channas are very forgiving in water changes, sub tropicals are anyway, because of their ability (and need) to breath air.
I have not kept Lucius, so I can't share experience, but they're sub-trop, so the care shouldn't differ. There is a sticky in these forums about all channas, and i'm sure Lucius is one of them!

Just know that the tank you have wouldn't be able to house a Lucius, or an arowana. At best, you'll have a year (TOPS) keeping a Lucius in there, granted you get him as a juvie.

141 liters is just enough for the dwarf species, but that's about it.

Oh no, that one is most definitely not.
it seems to be mostly adult tbh. Probably close to max size, hard to tell from the picture but markings seem pretty final.

What I mean is that if you were to get a juvie Lucius, you'd have at best a year in the tank you want for him as adult.

Oh, okay. I misunderstood it lol. I guess I'll go get some juveniles if I found some (sorry mother channa for catching your baby)

Tigerfish??? Won't it break the line if we cast it? I mean, with all those sharp teeth. Or is there another method to catch it?

You can use a wire trace for them
I'm hopefully going fishing for these soon, sharptooth catfish.
