Hello to all this is my first post. two days ago i purchased a baby clown knife 3 inch long, beautiful fish!!! I also bought a 75 gallon tank and i am setting it up for him/her at the moment. I have the baby knife in a 20 gallon planted and plenty of hiding places (leaned over rocks, and little tunnels) tank. He seems to happy with my three blue and gold gouramis. I am feeding the baby small krill and also flakes. He like them both and is eating well but not too much. I am aware that this fish can get over 3 foot long and i am prepared for that when it comes spared no expense. But i am in love with another type of knife fish as well. The black ghost knife is a fish i would love to take care of. I am concerned that they may not be the best tank mate since clown knifes don't do well with each other as adults. I have read that the ghost knife is very peaceful and timid but can recognize the owner and be hand fed. I was hoping to have these two knives together in one tank eventually. Does anyone have any input toward this sort of mix? Since the clown knife is a baby I was hoping to find a baby black ghost and raise them together. Is the possible?
I cant wait to get my clown in his new 75 gallon adolescent tank. I will post pictures!
thank you any response would be appreciated!
