Here is an update-
This is my Clown knife....Never really comes out of hiding anymore-----So I have to take what pics I can when I can......Quality not an issue when photographing this guy-
But anyhow,here is what I did manage......Maybe when he decided to come out again in a few months-I'll try for some better pics...

lovely knife, what are you feeding him and what size was he when you got him? i've never had them before, only black ghost knives and they didnt grow so big lol. actually my oscar ate him before he had a chance to grow ;)
 
Very nice. Mine never hides, but he is only about 5-6 inches now.
 
Nice!
 
How big is he? I've got a clown knife that is over a foot. He eats silver slides and gold fish as much as he can whenever he can. He never hides. Very cool to watch. Then I also have a 8" royal clown knife that eats the same only at night and always hides. Thinking about getting the later a new home because I never get to see him.

Appreciated-
He see a diet of strictly Feeders....Unfortunately....He was around the 2 inch mark or so when I picked it up...I starved the little guy for almost two months at that size trying to get it off the feeders.....Needless to say he almost died on me-So I gave in on the feeders-And it's been that way ever since....

I would say right around the 20 inch mark-Maybe bigger...
