Pair Of Dwarf Snakeheads In A 25?

[demonmagus]

Hi, do you guys think it would be alright to have a pair of snakeheads in a 25 gallon tank, or just stick with one?


thanks

You could have a pair, but you cant just put a male and a female together.

You have to get a group of 6, put them in, and wait for a pair. When a pair forms they will try and kill the others, but if youre lucky you might be able to rescue them.

that's what I was gonna do - now I just have to check out the cost, do you know how long it will take the pair to kill the others after they have formed?


thanks

sorry i dont know how long it would take, have never done it myself.

However when a pair forms the others would cower (sp?) away in a corner trying to keep away from the pair, thats when you know to take them out.
