I just got one yesterday in a trade. Hasn't eaten for me yet but im curious who else has one. Also what do you feed it. Mine was in the process of being broken off onto frozen foods like tilapia and smelt so the previous owner would feed live black worms once a week just so it wouldn't starve to death so it's kinda thin.

Same here. They looked insane just cruising through the water at night hunting cichlids. I'll try to get pics but it's been hiding

They reminded me of sone kind of ghosts or wraiths.Interesting how they hunt together and communicate with electric signals.

I think unstoppable had one for a little while before he got rid of it. They're like 5ft Knifefishes, an Aba Aba with a caudal fin.

I have one currently. About 8" or so. Only eats Rosie's at night still. Have it alone in a 29 gallon bc my dorado (8-9") had it halfway down its throat after 3 days of fine cohabitation amongst others in my 180.

There's another post from a while back regarding them. Search Cornish jack in the forum and there's a few this is the 2 or 3 I believe. Has advice about feeding and more.
