just wondering if anyone has a picture of one that is decent sized??
and what is their behavior like ??
i already have a regular clown (which is a MONSTER btw, growing faster than any of my other predators :)) and he is pretty active.
the LFS just got a shipment of albino's. but they seem to hide 95% of the time, which i dont like. and i cant even really get a good look at them.

if anyone has anything good to say about them, i could be persuaded into checking them out further
 
Are you talking about Golden Clown Knives or actual Albino Knives. Golden CKs are a different color morph of regular CKs. The Albino Knives are usually an Albino form of Notopterus Notopterus.
 
it was listed as an albino knife ?? usually the LFS does a decent job, but not always. sometimes they use common names instead of scientific names...
 
A Golden CK can get up to 30" and I think there was someone here who had a 20" Golden. N. Notopterus seems to get about 1' in captivity and it seems that Albino forms of any kind of fish seems to be a bit smaller than the normal color.
 
I'll try and get a pic of mine, he's atleast 18" now...See sig
 
i woulde love to see those pics.
 
put away the hiding places and they'll get used to it.That's what I did to my albino CK.he's not a monster yet, but already eating pellets and always active in both day and night time :)
