I wanted to add a 10 inch Payara Armatus to my 180 with a 16inch black ghost knife.
I am scared the ghost will bother the Payara at night?
My ghost is small, but he doesn't bother anyone. Is your ghost aggresive? Mine sort of keeps to himself so I would say you should go for it and just keep an eye on him. I wouldn't expect any problems.

I've also got an xxl bgk and hè is always nipping on my pseudoplatystoma when hè is in his way. I've you got one you can put a little blue moonlight lamp in it to see what happens.

I wouldn't worry about the BGK bothering the Armatus, I would worry about the Armatus killing your knife.

Hard to say, I have two clown knife fish in with my Payara. Payara is 8" and two knives are around 12". The knives seem more aggressive if anything than the Payara. I would think same would be true of the Ghost Knives.
