Blue Rainbow Snakehead

Young juvenile of the Blue Rainbow Snakehead (Channa andrao), a stunning dwarf snakehead species, renowned for its shimmering blue body and red-orange accents on the fins. Unlike larger snakeheads, it stays small and is more manageable in aquariums, though it remains territorial. Hardy and full of character, this species thrives in planted setups with hiding spots, subdued lighting, and a secure lid, as snakeheads are known jumpers. Its vibrant coloration and unique behavior make it highly sought after among enthusiasts.

The 'Maximum Size' outlined below is the length this fish can reach as a full grown adult. For the actual size please use the select menu above.

Discus.ae prefers younger stock for their better ability to adapt to new water parameters and higher tolerance against transport. On rare occasions you may receive larger specimens when small fish are unavailable, however the smallest should be expected unless the size is noted as "Large" or "Adult".
