I came across this Giant Snakehead video on youtube, and thought I would post it here:

WE know it was you doing it :banhim:...................


JK Im not sure why people enjoy doing this.I mean feeding for their amusement im sure that catfish isnt called feeder cat.
 
SH sweet but feeding the extra large "feeder" falls under non ethical if you ask me.

but a big SH no the less.


Anyone ever see that thing on Natgeo about the 3'SN it was on natgeo on demand for awhile idk if it's still there
 
Definitely a walking catfish. These are quite common farm fish (and also available naturally). Get's quite big on farms grows VERY fast.

I have fed these to my beasties. These are especially good when feeding juvenile aros and other fish,cos they are small and quite slow swiming. When grown-up, spine removal is recommended in order not to risk injuring the eater. None of mines rip the catfish like that (all that blood can't be that good for the water). I choose feeder that can be swallowed comfortably.

PS: snakeheads (well not the one in video seeing that it is fancy colored/patterned) actually make pretty good feeders too because they are elongated thus not so hard to swallow too - lots of meet and no fat
 
people always say that snakeheads enjoy killing, but that's why it might look that way. Walking Catfish have VENOMOUS spines on their pectoral fins. That goes back to the Lobster video. There might be only 1 spot that the Snakehead can eat so they leave the rest until it's dead ans causes no threat.
 
look at the colour on the snakehead! beautiful!
i rele hope mine grows like him!
