Monster Knifefish for Monster Community Tank

[Hendre]

What about a nice afer/reticulated knife, hit and miss community wise bit definitely available and worth a thought.
Coolest looking of all the knifes in my opinion and can hit 30".

Some disagree, although some have very nice gold colouration and are certainly active. Ask K krichardson

Disagree? About comming them?
Do they have jaws like the abas? I've heard they get nasty but seen quite a few on YouTube looking happy sharing their tank...

 

[knobhill]

I've read that afer knives become more territorial with size

 

[justarn]

But has anyone tried it in 1.1kg tank.

 

[Hendre]

They could be, but given their eventual size I would only try one

Here's another Gymnotus inaeqilabiatus from Argentina...over a meter long.
