i realize that several members here have clown knife fish, so i dont post this to start a flame war.....we already have had a lot of those.

people should however know the potential size of the fish they keep.

i am a knifefish fanantic and i know clowns need a 230 gallon tank to be comfortable. I used to have one in a 300 gall and he kept alive for around 6 years. I used to feed him a variety of live food. I bought him when he was about the size of my hand and when he died he was bigger then my arm. THey are a great fish if u have enough room. dont torcher these wonderful fish if u dont have room forget it.
