New tank and clown knife

[aidenb]

Could a clown knife, 2 parrots, a green sev, a festivum, 2 angels, and a fire eel live in a 6' x 1.5'(or 20inches, not sure) x 1.5' (again, maybe 20 inches)

clown knife and the fire eel will eventually outgrow that size tank.

yep but sounds nice pics? true parrots or blood ?

So it is big enough. I haven't bought the tank yet, but i'm going to pick up the knife on the 21st. He's going in a 36 x 18 x 15 growout tank.
P.S. i'm pretty sure the width and height are 20 inches not 18

Mine outgrew a 20 inch wide tank in the matter of a year.....

yeah ive had that happen as well. ck's grow extremely fast, one of the fastest growing fish i know of.

Forget about the growout and just throw him staright into the bigger tank. He'd be MUCH happier. In no time he is going to require a much larger tank. Keep in mind these fish grow 3ft.

I guesstimate you'll get about 1 yr maybe 18 months before you'll need another tank.
