mine is not a slow eater when the lights are on.. it is gone in a flash.. but because they have bad eyesight a ck with tank mates and alot going on in the tank may not be able to locate the food as fast.. mine knows where it will be and theres no one else in the tank with him and i have no other fish besides the pacu that eat as fast as my CK
i was planning on putting my 6" clown in with two angels in a 30 gallon, but i'm pretty sure that he'll outgrow them and the tank quick, after reading a few posts here.... anyone kept them with angels? Any problems?
Angels and Discus are a bad choice to go with a CK. He will harass them to death when the lights go out.
Also a 30 gallon will be outgrown by a CK almost instantly- they grow FAST.
My CK gets along fine with my CA Cichlids- an armed truce.
He bites my Birchirs if they go in his cave but not seriously-he cant hurt them.
clowns n jars actually get along quite well usually...i got my clown knife with smaller cichlids (juvie's) jag,umbee and 5 small as dovii...never had a prob..see how things go tho hehe
I saw it mentioned that african cichlids are fine with CK's.. do all of you think this would be okay as long as the cichlids were good size.. my ck is 9 inches.
Just everything that's in my sig, they all get along great, the largest clown knife runs the show and keeps everyone else in check. I've also had success in the past with pike cichlids.
