"one of my babies"? how many do you have? I love these fish, I was suppose dto get an early night and ended up watching my Clown KNife for a good while last night. Lovely fish to watch when hes on the prowl for food. I don;t get bored of him and I've had him 18 months almost

Interesting spots on yours as well having the two extra near the head

cheers

That is the smaller of 2 that I have. Ill post the picture of the bigger one later when I get home from work. These pics are about 4 months old. I havnt taken them out for measurement since

(and yes, theyre alive. i remove them briefly for measurement avery few months)

 

[simonas]

cheers for that

funny enough I was watching mine in action in the tank last night and he's looking like hes grown a bit more and is getting the depth that your larger one has, I think mines about 15 inches and a beautiful fish to watch!!

cheers for that

I like the ghost Knife fish's contrasting black and white

Yeah, not only do these fish get very long, but some develop really high backs as well
