The Barca Snakehead is native to the Brahmaputra river in India and Bangladesh. These fish are considered excellent fare by the local cuisine, but internationally, Barcas are coveted for their rarity, looks, and predatory nature. The species is listed as critically endangered by the IUCN red list.
Barca Fish aren’t the most well-documented species of the aquarium hobby. They’re rarely found in private tank setups, and there’s not a lot of research to be found. Nonetheless, one thing is clear regarding the species’ diet: they’re primarily carnivorous. You can find clues as to their diet preference from their morphology. These fish have long and powerful bodies, along with elongated dorsal fins. They’re also particularly known for the flattened shape of their heads and large mouths with rows of potent teeth.
As juveniles, Barca Fish generally tend to go after insects, snails, or plankton as a food source. Aquarists should note that even at such a young age, their teeth are powerful enough to break through the shells of snails to get to the meat inside.
Once these fish achieve adulthood and reach their maximum size, they’re able to take on bigger prey. These include crabs, fish, frogs, birds, shrimp, and even small aquatic animals. Notice how there’s no mention of the Barca Fish eating anything remotely plant-based.
In the wild, it’s not uncommon for these fish to go hunting for prey in groups when juveniles. That’s likely more to do with safety in numbers than being a community fish.
Once Barcas are sexually mature and have the advantage of their muscular bodies and mighty jaws, they prefer to live in solitude.
Anyone thinking of keeping this species in a private aquarium is advised to ensure it’s a single-species tank. Barca Fish are somewhat aggressive to members of their own kind or any other species. Housing them with smaller fish will spell doom for the undersized counterparts, and they’ll eventually end up on the Barca’s menu if the stress of living with this mighty creature doesn’t get them first.

Too small
Much smaller than it appeared to me in the picture. I did not read the length as I should. I would not have bought it if I saw it before purchasing. My 18 month old grandson now has a new toy.

I've bought like 20! Love them!!!
Size: Large, Pattern Name: Pack of 1
My dog is obsessed with this ball! Glow in the Dark is super bouncy, easy to spot at night, and tough enough to handle rough play. Perfect for evening fetch sessions—fun for both of us! We have bought about 20 of these so far. I always bring my dog to play fetch at night, and this is perfect if you're playing in a field or beach. Glows in the dark so both you and your dog can see it. The size of the ball is great for my big dog. It is also the perfect type of silicone so that my dog cannot easily tear it apart and chew it, which is GREAT! We do NOT want our dog's ingesting silicone at all. If you have a ball chewer, this ball is perfect and durable. Chewing ability is good and is not too tough but tough enough.
