Chitala doesn't have electric organs, so that won't b an issue. The only issue is the agressivnes of the Clown knife. I don't think Ghost knife could seriously injure a clown knife, but the clown has a larger maximum size and faster growth rate so it is posible that at some point can injure the ghost knife.
Giant Clown Knife with Giant Black Ghost Knife?

Awesome photo! How big do you estimate that BGK Ben? The clown is looking pretty big!
I have these two in the same tank and they are around the same size as in the photo. Currently in a 7' * 2' * 2' and never had a prblem with them. Have been together for around a year now
I am gonna be doing it this weekend! I will be watching for 8 hours straight and anything happens the Clown will go back to my LFS!
If you were to bring them up together from a young age then im sure it would be fine. If you were to introduce them while they are mature then i assume problems would arrise
chitalas don't but BGK's do because they are cousins of the imfamous electric eel
not always true i had one suncat for awhile when he got about 6in. i introduced two more now they are all happy as can be. on the other hand i 3 pictus cats all about 3in. and one had smaller eyes then the other two and the small eyed one would always fight over the water current with my lima shovelnose and then that small eyed pictus grew to be around 8-9in. and killed the other two pictus cats
When you introduce the new clown knife fish, I would change the décor around to make it seem like a new area so both can establish territories at a similar time rather than the black ghost fighting for its already claimed territory.
