asian aro - clown knife tank mate?

[henward]

clown knife fish with a asian aro, roughly the same size.

aro introduced first

is this ok?

any risks - ? experiences

Can't see why it wouldn't work, they inhabit different levels of the tank (Aro top, Knife bottom) so it should be fine. I have seen this combo work a few times.

If you see the other thread with compatibility issues you will see many guys have done it successfully and many have not.

So I guess its on the individual fish's temperament.

yeah i dont think its anything bad....will work definitely

based on individual fish
usually a smaller knife would be better

Should be fine

it should work!
unfortunately for me, it didnt work, my aro kept hammering the CK from above, had to seperate and ended up trading the CK for a bichir..
