Plan for the adult, not the dispatch size
A small snakehead offered for sale can grow into a substantial predator. Compare the named species, adult size and aquarium footprint before choosing, and treat dwarf or blue trade wording as a starting point for checking the listing rather than a promise of easy housing.
Discuss the named fishA secure aquarium with surface access
Snakeheads breathe air, so escape prevention and access to the surface must work together. Plan a close-fitting cover, shelter and the species-specific water conditions. Predatory and territorial behaviour also needs a stocking and separation plan; ordering two fish does not establish a compatible pair.
