Hi, Im nick, im new to these forums; i've been looking for channa for about 2-3 weeks now i've found it quite difficult to locate one because i live in Canada Vancouver BC. I realize this is a UK forum and sincerely apologize for posting here but im kind of desperate. Canada is the U.S.' neighbor and because of the U.S.' ban on Channa, there is a very minimal market for them here which makes it difficult finding any. I've searched all lfs, websites, and looked for private breeders but my efforts were in vain.

If anyone knows a dealer in Canada or any way possible for me to purchase one of these fish i would be so grateful. I am prepared to pay a reasonable price for these fish and would like to say that i know enough to keep these fish healthy and happy so if anyone could assist my quest, please feel free to send me a message or leave a reply.

I'm interested in the more vibrant snakeheads and am looking for
bleheri
sp assam
sp redfin
gachua krabi
aurantimaculata
etc...

Thanks all for reading any help would be much appreciated, cheers. :)

Hello M8, welcome to the forum, This is an international forum not just for the UK, so stick around.

I am unaware of any dealers in Canada, however we do have another couple of Canadians on the forum, hopefully they will see this post and help you out if they can.

Hi Nick. I'm from Vancouver as well. I'm currently placing an order through a company I found on BCAquaria call Dragonfish Canada. He has a list of Snakeheads he says he can order in a "group buy" situation. If you are still looking check out the thread at bcaquaria located under the heading snakehead/fh.

Cheers,

Calvin
