hey. i have 2 red snakeheads. i believe a male and female. both in a 160gal. i bought them in august of 2002 at 3 inches. now they are 14 inches plus. these fish are unbelievable! they will eat until the cannot move. i dont feed this way however. only once a month, for friends to gawk at how much they actually consume. my question is this. does anybody know of a suitable tank mate for these brutal beauties. one that grows at the same rate??? also, does anyone know where to get a 350gal. for a reasonable price? any help, would be greatly appreciated.

tank mates are not very easy for these fish.They require VERY large fish one fish you could put with these is a pacu.Get two not just one.Theses fish grow to 23 inches or more.BUT make sure you get a pacu that will not fit into your snakeheads mouth thats probaly about 10 or so inches.Where did you get theses fish?I would love to have one for my tank.If you ever want to get rid of them or just one I WILL tanke it...
