Hey,
I was wondering if my tank setup is good enough for the Channa bleheri or should I add some more plants and remove the rocks?

The community fish will be sold before I add the channa

Any comments is much appreciated.20190621_145654.jpg

Looks like a lovely set up maybe remove things as it grows giving more open swimming space

That tanks will work fine even for an adult C. Bleheri. I would add some floating vegetation and maybe drop the waterlevel alittle due to channas beiong jumpers and amazing escapeartist

Thx for the reply, it's a 180L (47g) juwel rio tank so I hope it's big enough for 2 but I need 6 to get a pair isn't that right?

Thats big enough. I have an pair of C. Asiatica in an 180L cornertank.

When i had a group of channa pulchra i bought 8 to get a pair. Buy a group youngsters and let them pair up. They do pair upp quite young.
