NEW KNIFE OWNER

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My First Post!!

Anyways, I also just got a BGK today. He is about 4.5 inches and lookes great. My BGK is also very shy right now, but i tilted a peice of flat rock against the glass and he is just staying there even though i have a nice dark cave for him. after a fen hours of having him, I think knife fishes are probably my favorite fish right now.

goodluck with your fish
 
mine's slowly starting to cum out when hte light is on....wats more astonishing tho! is that i dumped 200+ guppy sized feeders in my 180 like 4 days ago and now i only have 4 left...his guts are huge!!! my lil pacu prolly ate a few but fark...they are bottom less pits~!!
 
I moved them to a 15 gallon bare tank with 2 spotted gars(3+") and 2 oscars(1 1/2"), the knives are 3+" by the way. They seem to be fine and they are getting fatter each day cuz i stuffed the tank with guppies!

wow you have alot of monsters in the making. how big are the gar. what tank will you be putting all these guys in?
 
nice pickup. Once the knifes get big enough you wont even need hiding places for them...better plan on upgrading cuz there will be aggression in that size tank...
 
I have a flourecent bulb on top of the 15 gal. and i usually light it at night cuz i wanna see them chillin. i'll put them in my 35 gal. when i get a bigger tank for my bichirs (i actually have 8 senegals ranging 5-8" in my 35. to crowded huh???)
 
I did not know you could keep two clown knifes together??? How big are they and what size tank..lots of luck with them..i love mine!!!:)
