I've had CKs from 16" to 22" and they've never caused a problem with anything other than similar fish. Currently I have a 20" CK with a 24+" aro, 15" oscar, 15" lima shovelnose and a 20" marbled pim and they never bother each other at all. IMO a CK is one of the easiest fish to get onto dead food.

wow is he built !!! :D
 
Haven't had any problems with agression from mine. 13" ck currently with 7 stingrays, 2 needlenose gar, kingkong parrot, and small pleco. Everyone gets along. There is almost allways food in the tank for the rays so maybe that's what keeps him happy.No problems whatever getting of live foods
 
I have no problems with what's in my sig...They all seem to get along very well, at feeding time they can get a little rowdy. The golden clown knife is the most aggressive out of the mix but the largest clown "runs" the tank. Funny, I bought the golden knife out of a tank with a dovi, two red tiger motaguenses and a few other central american cichlids. I wonder why he's aggressive? lol

Clown knife fish will not work with texas! My 10" carpintis shredded a 15" ck in 5 minutes. The ck had plenty of hiding spots too. The rest of the mix is okay though. (cichlids are too aggressive for them IME)

i bought his ck. his major tank mates are 18+ inch silver aro and a 8+ inch oscar. they are all pretty chill towards each other so far.
