ALL ABOUT THE GIANT AND INDIA GIANT SNAKEHEAD

Interesting thread...Now back to the basics, I've noticed the issue of sexing came up before things went off topic. :irked: Someone mentioned that females have bigger bellies, another person said they exhibit white marking on the top. I would be interested to find out more on this .. :confused:

also there were pics posted of SH with Gator Gars.. :D i keep mine alone for the time being and had to mix and match my three tanks to find a workable combination. I now have 1 giant snake head all on its own which im planning to throw in my biggest tank (240 cm long by 80 cm wide) with 3 alli gars and a once badass flowerhorn (who is timid with the gars)...would this work once the SH grows to a suitable size? my third tank houses a giant gourmy and 2 cray fish..:nilly: (pics attached) any suggestions? advice?

PS. I promise to take better pics soon.

you can put them together when they are in same size. nice gar!
 
here some pic of my 2ft++ giant snakehead before i release them to lake in rawang. hopefully thet gonna survive there :)

SH and gators are extremely aggressive.... and they both pack a fatal bite...

its really dangerous man. i'd be pretty confident to say that the SH can if now will kill the FH as soon as it gets big enough... same goes to the GG.

now with the gators... man. i think it'll only take one tick. just one mistake that they will happen to take a shot a one another... and as i've said a while ago, they can kill each other with just one bit.. esp. the SH... i'm pretty sure they have thick scales. but man, these are the guys who wiggle after a bite... so i'd have to advise against it.

no way a SH can kill anything with one bite.
theyre grip isnt really strong.
they tend to bite then thrash around.
if the SH and gator ever fought,it'd be the SH im worrried about.
 
everytime I go to XianLeng I really feel like asking the boss, with all the fish at thier disposal why on earth do they display that 3 ugly toman??? Thats gotta be the worse interm of pattern and color.
