So, I want to add a new fish to my pond. About a few months ago I went to my favorite fish market and saw Bronze Knifefish (Notopterus notopterus). Now, I think I have decided I want it, but theres a problem. Information on this fish is very rare, my only source was an Indonesian goverment document. Also, the fish in the pond may cause problems, so here are my questions

1. What are the water parameters for a bronze knifefish
2. I have a Jag cichlid in the pond. How do I introduce the knifefish properly into the pond when there is an established cichlid in it?
3. I had various pacu in the pond. I rehomed most but 4 still remain. Will the pacus cause any problems? (I'm trying to rehome the last 4)

While these are not directly related to your question, here are some websites I found with some information about your fish:





Also, here is an MFK thread about someone who kept one: https://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/threads/notopterus-notopterus.690601/

Hope this helps!
