He's about 6 inches. He's in a 60 gallon with an 9 inch snide fish. The pet store told us that the ppl who dropped them off said they have been in a 55 gallon together for roughly a year. I know they are going to out grow tank but I feel separating them right now would only add to their stress. The CKF isn't eating either.
so there are 2 knifefish in this tank then? They could definitely stand the upgrade as there may be some bloodshed in the future as their size increases. You just got them in the tank, some of my fish take 2-3 weeks to start eating for me.

They didn't even charge me for him as they knew nothing about him
I had the same thing happen a couple years ago with 2 large dragon gobies which I added to another one someone got because it looked cool but they didn't know anything about it and it wouldn't work in their tank
