MEDUSA MY CHANNA!

[your_animes]

Long story short. I saw that our local pet store(where i buy superworms) were selling snakeheads on a 15 gallon aquarium and saw the price which was 100 pesos(2$ in us) so i thinked “why the hell would i buy one?”. Kaboom next thing i know i was holding a unknown channa/snakehead type(or breed) that i brought back home at my old 5 gallons where my old betta lived before(rip)

For all concerns my 5 gallon is nicely long and wide and hes all alone so yeah its just a temporary before i can figure out how will i take care of him without getting tag-teamed by my pacus

Definitely a Channa Micropeltes.
Its the fastest growing snakehead and very aggressive. They are ravenous killing machines too. Mine grew from 8 inches to 1.5 foot just within 5 months, after which it killed my 10 inch walking catfish.
I gave it away this weekend due to its highly aggressive nature. Check out these two threads

Lesson learned, the hard way

I added this 10 inch walking catfish to my predator pond since it was bothering my aro a lot. The catfish was fine for two days until this happened. My snakehead did this . Now I know they really are ravenous killing machines. Disclaimer: this image may contain graphic content RIP pinky!

So sad about selling this beast. Thought I had made up my mind about selling it but I almost cried when I was leaving. Thankfully, the new owner, despite being a shopkeeper, really liked the fish and said would keep it. I had this fish for about five months during which it grew to about 1.5 foot...

You need a bigger aquarium asap that Channa species grows fast.

Agreed. Also what are you gonna do with those three pacu? They grow very large and very quickly too. Even my 500 gallon pond looks small for my 1.5 foot pacu.
