African Knife Fish 7-8 inch

Do not keep with any fish so small as to be regarded as food. Good tank mate choices include larger Characins, medium sized peaceful Cichlids, butterfly fish and catfish such as Synodontis, Brochis and Loricariids. It can be kept in a group when young, but as it matures it becomes increasingly territorial, particularly towards conspecifics and a relatively large tank is required to maintain a group of adult fish.
