Hi,it depends on your tanks size.

micropeltes grow very big, theres someone selling a 28inch one at present on a/c...two foot is a pretty big channa so your going to need a very large tank, channa pluero ,max around 16inchs and are very slim line and sexy..hehe

Channa Marulioides and Channa Pleurophthalma are nice medium sized snakeheads. Both are active fish. For something a little mellower you could get a Channa Obscuura or Insignis. Marulioides get about 2 feet, the other 3 get about 16 inches.
