Hey guys I recently just got my first clown knife with him I got two peacock bass and a bichir first day or two he chased everyone around not really doing anything once he got to them and then he stopped kinda and today I got a datnoid and he has been chasing the dat the knife is the largest in the tank and the dat is second biggest is this normal clown behavior or should I be worried that its going to kill one of my fish? Here's some pics of the clown and dat if you want more pics let me know they are all in a 150 btw don't mind the water spots I ran out of glass cleaner yesterday Haha

Since the CKF will outgrow your other fish except the pbass, they will all be history but your CKF will be fat. Rehome the dat and give him some size before he returns there. I don't know how large is your bichir, though.
 
I wish I could just have a second tank this size or bigger I have mulitple tanks but most have reptiles in them or other fish waiting to join the 150

Well, let them be. They tend to work things out. Just keep a eye out for all the fish.

Well then sounds like I should just get rid of the clown knife then?

Haha... You should rid of the bass before the knife. Keep them all and monitor all fish.
