Where to buy channa gachua

[Rutilans]

Can any bros tell me where to buy c.gachua ?
bought my first piece from seaview.
and anybody knows how to ID male or female?

[stormhawk]

Occasionally I see gachua at C328, in individual bags near the back of the shop where they sell shrimps and other large fish. Usual rule of thumb is males have a larger head when viewed from above.

Please do your buy/sell/trades etc privately or via the Marketplace, thanks.

C. gachua is available every now and then at C328. Sometimes large specimens too. The other LFS further up the block from Polyart also stocks nice Channa from the larger species.

most of the Channa we see are C. bleheri, C. sp assam, or Channa sp. fire and ice.
Channa gachua is found in our local and neighbouring waters and rarely sold in LFS due to lack of demand.

There were like 6 bags of fire and ice and 2 bags of bleheri 2 days ago at c328.
And there is a bag of a single 10" striata. I believe it is a striata..

C. Gachua are available at Qian Hu, along with other channas The tanks are labelled for easy reference!

Note that in Qian hu, some of the tanks use common names, such as "shiny snakehead", which looks to be a Channa lucius, and these guys grow quite big,

Some of the tanks are also unnamed, like the Channa asiatica tank, therefore you have to be careful in choosing the species. I personally picked out a lone Channa asiatica from the Channa gachua tank, which would probably have died because the waters are so warm so do be careful.

You may end up with a monster sized Channa that will prove too big for your tank, or a subtropical Channa, which will slowly die without the proper care.
