Black Ghost Knife Fish (4 Inch)
Apteronotus albifrons
The Black Ghost Knife Fish is a fascinating and graceful freshwater species, known for its velvety black body, white tail tip, and elegant, wave-like swimming motion. At 4 inches, this young fish is perfect for aquarists looking to raise an exotic centerpiece from an early age.
Native to the river basins of South America, the Black Ghost Knife prefers dim lighting, planted aquariums, and plenty of hiding spots like driftwood, caves, and tubes. Despite its ghostly name and predatory look, it is generally peaceful and does well with other medium-to-large non-aggressive tankmates.
This species is nocturnal, using a weak electric field to navigate and hunt in the dark. It thrives on a protein-rich diet of bloodworms, tubifex, brine shrimp, and soft sinking pellets.
