MrMom Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Simply beautiful ... but the tank is missing something, maybe a chunk of driftwood IMO. Been thinking of setting up another tank for snakeheads, saw some Rainbow Snakeheads at a store here in Calgary. Now seeing yours ... very tempting. Once again .... Beautiful.

Tyopsky Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Is it still legal to purchase and keep snakeheads in Alberta. Looking at the Rainbow Snakehead - Channa bleheri but am unable to find anyplace that sells them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvision Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Some of the larger LFS carry C. bleheri from time to time. I've seen them at Big Al's in Edmonton, so I imagine they'd have them in Calgary as well. I would give a call to Big Al's and Pisces - Gold's and Riverfront (when they re-open - I herd they got hit bad by the flood) to see if they have some in, or when they expect to get any.

madagascariensis Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 saw some small snakeheads labeled "rainbow snakehead" at franco's aquarium in calgary a month or so ago, so they certainly still are sold in alberta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyopsky Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 What would be considered the minimum sized tank to house a couple rainbow snakeheads? Could they be put in a 29Gallon tank? Are they compatible with a pleco? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbenchzer Posted August 11, 2013 Report Share Posted August 11, 2013 Giant snakehead needs big tanks... especialky a few... in prospective an adult about a 13 month would be ideal to be in a 150 gallon but its up to you in preference.... personally I have one at 6 inches and its in a 70 gallon and will be looking for big tank soon... Eats like no tomorrow but awesome to see when they are relax and calm... or when aggressive or hungry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwarfs, Bows Ceylon?? post pics and feedback I was debating on setting up a heavily planted tank for a smaller Channa sp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
