Deffinatley Rhamphichthys rostratus or the Ossa Knife Fish. They get 20 inches in the aquarium and prefer the water to be around 80 degrees with the Ph being slightly acidic. They spend the day lying on their sides and come out at night to eat. They eat Bloodworms, Blackworms, and Shrimp that is either live or freeze dried. I have two 10 inch Ossa Knife Fish in my grow out tank. They love being together! Good Luck!
