Royal Clown Knife Fish Chitala Blanci 15cm

Overview: The Royal Clown Knife Fish, scientifically known as Chitala blanci, is a captivating and majestic freshwater species renowned for its sleek silver body and striking patterns resembling clown-like markings. With its graceful movement and unique appearance, this species adds regal elegance to any aquarium setting.

Origin: Originating from the river systems of Southeast Asia, particularly Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos, these fish thrive in slow-moving freshwater environments rich in vegetation and hiding spots.

Feeding: Royal Clown Knife Fish are carnivorous, favoring live food such as small fish, earthworms, shrimp, and insects. They may also accept high-quality pellets or frozen foods.

Tank Mates: Best kept with peaceful tank mates of similar size, as smaller fish might be seen as potential prey. Suitable companions include larger tetras, catfish, or other non-aggressive, similarly-sized species.

Aggression: Typically peaceful but may display territorial behavior, especially when establishing their space within the aquarium. Provide plenty of hiding spots to reduce stress and potential conflicts.

Experience Level: Recommended for intermediate to experienced aquarists due to their specific dietary needs, potential size, and requirements for a spacious environment.

Water Parameters:

  • Temperature: 75-82°F (24-28°C)
  • pH: 6.0-7.5
  • Water Hardness: Soft to moderately hard water
