Black Ghost Knife Fish Compatability

[Jo_nz]

I have a BGK with a pair of green severums, a longfinned eel, unknown number of bristlenoses, an adult sailfin plec, a jag hybrid something with a a blown swim bladder, a baby common plec, a Synodontis eupterus and a diminishing handful of "how not to breed " danios. The fish all have their own space, the severums are cleaning rocks now so I hope they pair up properly.
The danio population is going down slowly thanks to the eel and the bgk. Oddly enough the eel and the bgk prefer each others company, they hunt together and inhabit the same bolthole under the rocks.

jo_nz what size is your tank if you dont mind me asking? im looking for ideas on tank sizes for a Black Ghost

 

[Kuda]

when the oscar gets big enough i will probably eat it
gouramis will be fine
balas will be fine
eel might nip at his fins
pictus depending on size might be OK

LOL i was just readin this and noticed you said u would eat his oscar when it gets big enough lol

Tinfoil barbs need 6+ in a tank 6ft or longer- and 110s have the blueprint of 90s. The oscar won't work, he'll be too agressive. The gouramis shouldn't even be in with predatory fish, bala sharks need 6+ in a tank 6ft or longer, the pleco takes up the bottom- so no eel, and the pictus catfish is a bottom dweller, so no. I'll assume your pleco is common, so you really shouldn't have anything else in that tank... The knife and the pleco and you have yourself a fully stocked tank.
