They usually hide together. Get some moonlights or some redlights so you can watch them at night, thats when they're the most active...

Would They Survive in my cichlid community tank or not ?

[cocoa_pleco]

with peaceful cichlids like dwarfs yes, other like mbuna no

How About Oscars??

[cocoa_pleco]

oscars would gobble them up unless you have tons of hiding spaces

[shockshockshad]

How About Oscars?? Pretty much no fish can go with oscars. The fish should be 4-5 inches long or more, but they can't be long like loaches- they need to be, well, just big and round.

Black Ghost Knives Can Can't They

if the tank is large, as in 200g+ yes

[TowBoater]

Khulis need 30g plus and need plenty of hiding places. They are NOT recommended with anything other than dwarf cichlids. I think oscars can go with many fish such as severums, jacks, convicts, firemouths, terrors, featherfins, jewels etc.

Hey Kuli why do you say they need a 30+? I had four(two died) in my 29 and they did just fine and came out quite often during the day.

PS. They had tons of hiding places

[cocoa_pleco]

theyre recommended for tanks above 29g because of how active they are

[fishfanatic33]

I see. they definetly are very active
