Why?
So,Australian can't keep any channa?

Tank looks too small for Channa Marulioides.

But my snakehead now just about 9 '' only...
I will change it into my father's big aquarium when it reach 20''...

and that is not my eyes fault..
i see according to my view at your water's condition..
so that 'greenish' look at your tank is the 'moss'?

here's another view at my channas:

SAme species with me(Channa Marulioides)...Because my marulioides also look like this when it was small...Will they attack each other?
Maybe my aquarium green colour that plant not moss...i just don't know the name..they stick on the screen...

mine is the same..
we have to clean it with the magnetic sponge..
heheheh..

what i know from my readings, and from my observation to my snakeheads, they will not bite or eat each other..

for your information, i have bought another 2 marulioides at shah alam, behind wetworld at this day..they sold them for RM7.50 each..
but these 2 is more smaller..
and when i first put them in the tank, they seems to get to know each other..even the bigger one can bite them till death, they didn't do it..
when the smaller is not moving for sometime, the bigger will come to it and 'check' if it is still alive..

wow man!
this is awesome!
i love my snakeheads!
