I'd have thought mixing a small, peaceful species of Channa with a bristlenose cat, Congo tetras and a climbing perch or two would be fine. As others have said, there may be some variation. I've not kept C. gachua or C. bleheri so can't speak for their temperament. But C. asiatica is generally very mild, and C. stewarti seems to be too.
I kept mine in 200 gallon tanks, one freshwater, the other (low-end) brackish, and in neither case were there problems. The tank size is probably a factor. Usually when you see dwarf snakeheads with (largish) community fish, they're in nice big tanks, and that probably prevents arguments over territory. In a smallish tank like yours, things might be different. Definitely canvas opinions on this -- as I say, I haven't personally kept the two species you're after -- and act accordingly.
Cheers, Neale
Neale a quick question, in the Rio125 in my Sig would you think that a Channa (Bleheri/Gachua) would be a suitable fish to add or would i be risking the Plecs?
