Can some1 give me some info on Wolf Fish, I saw one and i really liked it. Can the be kept with oscars, clown knifes, plecos, well just read the 100g thing in my signature. the ones i saw were about 3inch and the smallest thing in my tank is the Eletric Blue at 5in
Wolf fish are pretty aggresive, and depending on what species you get the vary on size, you should keep these guys alone especially when they are older. It'll eat everything

chuck - will be fine in your tank until it hits about 9 inches or so. Until then they are not very aggressive at all. They just sit there.
I;m talking about hoplias, erythrinus are meant to be aggressive early on.
which species of wolf are we talking about? wolf tetra? hoplias?

Ya it is a high fin rainbow wolf. and guess wut. I BOUGHT IT. couldn't resist. the owner said that this was first time he has gotten one in in 2 years.
Bad idea, as said they're aggressive early on. They gouged you with the price too... :(
