Snake heads.

[overlord1957]

Hi.
I would love to hear from any expert about snake heads.
Which one can survive in cold water?
By no mean icy water, let say 40F plus!!!!!
Any infos will be much thankful.
Cheers.

maybe a northern Snakehead....hard to find around here, i think.

yea channa argus MIGHT be able to survive those temperatures for a short period. I think the coldest water snakehead found so far are the channa true blue moonbeam galaxys. They're native to the megalaya region in india and winters frequently get to around 5C so i would bet that they could endure those temperatures (but they may be fairly lethargic)
