you guys know anything about clown knifefishs?

Clowns are nockternal and just about blind fish. They need a tube of some sort, pvc, clear plexi etc. for the safe feeling the crave. Im not sure what the ph should be nor the water temp sorry. I know they will eat brine, krill etc. Other then that not sure what else. Good luck as I know there is not much on the net about these interesting creatures.
