Hey guys.

I have a 10" Royal Clown Knife which is fighting with my 8" Green aro....so with no where to put the RCK, I chucked him into my big tank with my 26" Silver aro and 22" CK.

Right away I thought "Ah crap he looked so much bigger in the other tank, he's gonna get destroyed" I was about to rescue him from getting et, but....the big CK doesn't even notice he's there and the aro just keeps circling around him...then swimming away. Weird... I fully expected the CK to go right after him...
 
hmmmmmmm. Thats a strange story. I hope for the best but as we all know CK's dont do so well together. who knows mabey you have a docile large ck and a smart small ck . as for the aro.. look out im sure the small knife would fit in his mouth. i wish the best in this strange situation!
 
I get a new digi camera today, I'll put up pics later.
 
I'd like to see them and how it's working out, PICS! :)
 
RCK's a bit chewed today...dunno who the culprit is...
 
As promised, pics...

that looks great
i used to have my 16" ck and 8" ck together for a while. they schooled for a few months.
then all of a sudden the larger ck started to attack it more and more everyday. enough to the point where the small ck never came out again even for feeding, so i had to move him. i also had a silver with them and it never bothered either of them.
 
He's getting pretty big lol, the tanks 6'x2'x30"
