Dovii or other clown knife tankmates

[180gallons]

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find a dovii or a suitable tank mate for a pair of clown knives (20" & 24") and a red pike (8")? I had a peacock bass that died when I moved about 5 months ago and I need another tank mate for my knives.

Most of those fish would work however, the wyckii,asian red tailed catfish,dovii and umbee would kill the knives.

If you have enough tank go with an arowana...mine does well with my clown...or a jag.

How big is your tank and your fish? How difficult is a arowana to keep?
