bettachris Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3875 Kudos: 4173 Votes: 452 Registered: 13-Jun-2004	has simular color pattern. could be easier to see if the croc isn't in the way. is it possible to get another pic.

betahex Fish Addict Posts: 864 Kudos: 352 Votes: 0 Registered: 11-Jul-2001	i've been around them for quite some time and i know for a FACT that it is a SNAKE HEAD... i just don't know which species... i think it MIGHT be "Channa argus"... not sure though.

Alex Fish Addict 510 Posts: 721 Registered: 03-Oct-2004	i think it might be some sort of birchir aswell ''All the clown fish and yellow tangs in the world cant save you now!''

Shinigami Ichthyophile Catfish/Oddball Fan Posts: 9962 Kudos: 2915 Registered: 22-Feb-2001	That is definitely 100% Snakehead. Unfortunately I can't tell you what species of the Channa genus that is. Wow, it makes me sad how few people know of Snakeheads. sigh What can you do, after all, they're banned now... -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.
