Yeh thats true, thats why you need to have a well established plant tank ebfore you add predators. When a planted tank is well established the roots are so deep and strong that they cannot be torn out. I specialize in planted tanks, espesh CO2 fed planted aquariums. I've grown and propagated every plant and coral i can get my hand on.

I'm sure he can live in that tank, but if i ever had a nice sized knife like that i would have a 5-6 foot tank, more than likley a 6ft tank with plently of plants and logs. But i just love the look of a planted tank more then the fish, .

no wrong.. they actually SCOOP UP and MOVE the rocks w/ their mouths and make nests and dwellings.. i have had them uproot plants that had 14-16inch root systems..
i have also created shelters for the knife at one time w/ lots of driftwood and timber but as he got bigger he just seemed to prefer open area as hiding place or any kind of shelter.. and since he exhibited no signs of stress i figured thats what he wanted.. and the tank is 56''x30'' as i like deeper tanks
