help id these

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yes, we have identified them for you. Look up Clown Knifefish for all the information you need, or ask on here. They are great fish.
 
i have the same thing just darker and im told its a wild caught african brown knife always wanted one but never seen anyone with one exactly like mine...
 
thanx guys...so can i positively id these as gold clown knife? how big can they go? did a google but can't find anything on gold clown knives...:)

albino gold clown knife perhaps???

Gold clown knife/albino gold clown knife, both are the same fish. A color mutation of a clown knifefish aka chitala ornata.
 
Albino Notopterus notopterus, the head shape is not like of any sort of clown knife I'm familiar with..no matter the color. Where did you say you got this fish? Does he have more? Do they ship? Seriously interested in obtaining some..







p.s. just saw that you said they were listed as albino black knife fish. N. notopterus is almost always listed that way on stocklist's. Learned that from a seller/importer that sold them.
 
Some sources say N. notopterus reach 24" in the wild but only 12" in the home aquarium, other sources say 14" in an aquarium.



p.s. did I see the words group buy for these?
