Damn I wish I could have a snakehead
Looks good!!
Thanks but he gets very aggressive at some times. It hardly accepts any new tankmates. I tried adding a florida gar and a marbled walking catfish but it tried to eat both. Somehow it didn't bother this new midas.
I had to move the black belt from my pond, he was beating on everyone.
So now I have
A giant gourami
Vulture cat
Granulosus cat
And a bala
Really? That cichlid looked small and how did he manage to bully the giant gourami? I heard they are very aggressive . I too was facing aggression issues at the start that's why I added the rock structures. Maybe try increasing the hiding spots and increase your feedings. Also I would love to see some pics of your fish too.

I’ve had fish similar to snakeheads like bowfin and mala wolfs and they both wouldn’t tolerate tankmates.

The GG and black belt are both 4-5” . He wasn’t trying to kill anything, just nonstop harassment. So I have him with the Midas with a divider for now and I have a buyer lined up for the Midas and I’ll give the black belt that tank. I really like the black belts personality
