Hello, I recently found a seller offering 4 inch harlequin lancer catfish , I instantly thought they were a beautiful fish and wanted one, I was just curious to know before I buy if anyone knows if there aggressive or not? I was planning on keeping him with an azul peacock bass, a datnoid, some sort of bichir, and a flag tail
 
Mine doesn't.It hides during the day and comes out to search for food in the dark of the night and my other fish don't seem to be affected by it's nocturnal activities.
