Hey MFK friends I just started myself up a profile here after coming back again and again for info so being new and really not having much to say right away I decided to share a story about how I paid $20 at Petco (Yeah I know I paid too much and it's Petco) for a Black Ghost Knife and judging by the lack of success others have from them I must've bought the roided out ghost they had in their pin! Since August my little black noodle has grown to a 8+ inches! Very proud of the little guy haha
 
Sorry Hoyo no pictures yet, I'm still an "egg" and that means I can't do much haha. But when I can post pics you bet the black beaut will be first up! Philly I wanna say he/she was bout 3 inches and about as thick as a noodle at time of purchase. The Petco fish "expert" just got em in that day.
 
That's pretty impressive growth, they're not all that fast growing usually.
 
Mine grew pretty quick too, from 3" to 10" within the first year. Has slowed since, looks to be about 14" now a little over two years since I got him.
 
Awesome! Hey Bderick any pics of yours? I checked your profile but couldn't find any. I'm now beyond an egg, minnow and shrimp so I'll have pics up hopefully tomorrow of her! Anybody else that has I purty knife I'd love to see it so post it!
 
No I don't really have any pics of him since going into my 450g tank. He has about 5' of driftwood to swim under and behind so I rarely get to even see a full body shot of him.

In a few weeks I'll be doing a semi tear down of the 450g to remove some unwanted fish. At that time I'll have to get a true measurement with pic of him.
 
mine seemed to never grow....but i guess its just hard for them to feed cuz there very passive...But upload some pics i always wanted to see a beastie BGK
