Gold line Knife

I have recently purchased a large Gold Line and I am looking for some info as to what is the best thing to feed them and just general care. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

So...from what I can found out, they grow to over 3' and seem to prefer soft acidic waters. They can be pretty territorial and very secretive. Just like a BGK, they emit electrical pulses to locate their prey. Keep temp around 78F-82F Good luck with it!
