    Google is your best friend.
    If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
    Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.
    Mohamad Rohaizal is my name. If it's too hard, use BFG. I don't mind.

    Some gets big like the cornish jack, but those usually sold in lfs should remain small.
    Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and he will drink beer while getting sunburnt.

    i went to google it

    interesting!the fish can grow up to 8'' and are the same species of electrical eels. They too use electro senses to detect their prey and fire small charges to kill them.(not harmful to other fishes)

    I think electric eels are more related to knifefish, although both kinds uses electric field to seek or hunt prey.
