I currently have 2 African brown knives in a 20g grow out/quarantine tank.
Both are sitting at around 2.5-3” and so far fully healthy. They are going in a heavily planted 120g tank with a green severum and a green phantom pleco. The severum is 7” (just measured in net), the green phantom is in a different quarantine tank and is about 3.5-4”. Given the severums size, I want the knives to grow a bit more before adding them.
So does anyone have an idea how long it will take to get them 2.5-3” to around 5+”? The QT tank is a 20g high, planted, 50% weekly WC, 2 HOB rated for 20g each, fed 2x a day of a varied diet (shrimp pellets, blood worms, live black worms, brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, scratch made veggie flakes.)
