BFK question

[Oskie Boy]

I have two black ghost knife, one in a 125 and another in a 600. I have read they can not be housed together for various reasons. They are both 8” or so. What do you guys think about putting them together in a four foot by 8 foot aquarium. There is drift wood/ areas for the fish to hide. Any thoughts?

I personally would give it a try.

I do not think you would have a problem in a tank with plenty of decoration and space. May need to add more hiding places if this is the eel tank as the driftwood you mention is thin and doesn’t really provide knives with adequate cover. They do like to fully hide.

Yes same tank, I piled the wood up more and added some fake plants to the piles. I’ll try and take some pics later.
