I was thinking about setting up a new tank with one or two very aggressive fish in it.The tank will probably be between a 75gal and a 120gal.So far I was thinking of one or two of the following...

Rhom
Tiger fish (If there is a smaller kind)
Wolf fish
snakehead (if too big then a dwarf)

I plan on moving my cichlids into a 125 gal tank and my next tank I want to keep it under 125gal.

I would like if the fish will eat a variety of food including pellets and not just feeder fish.

What do you think?
 
A Rhomb would work for quite a while.
There is no small ATF that would be fine for more than about a year. There is another Tigerfish (Datnoid) that would be OK for a long time in either tank.
Common Wolf, as well as red and gold wolves would work.
Finally, dwarf channas would be fine in there.

Its all about preference, you've got a lot to choose from. :)

Will a common wolf or a dwarf snakehead eat pellets?

Yes, I've had 5 different specie of sh they all ate carnivore pellets, so did all my wolffish.
 
American eels eat anything, will take food from your fingers and sometimes try to eat the fingers too, I think they look cool but make sure all lid spaces are covered and clamped dowm.
 
Ok here are my ideas...

Is there any way of mixing 2 fish in a tank like a dwarf snakehead and wolf fish or a Rhom and a wolf fish? I hear that you can't keep anything with a Rhom but I also heard that the wolf fish is known to kill piranhas so I don't know about that mix.

I was also thinking of just getting a dwarf snakehead and putting it with my cichlids(Midas,Jack Dempsey and 2 convicts) When I get a larger tank like a 125 gal.I'm not too sure if that will work though.

Or move my cichlids into a larger tank and keep either a wolf fish,Rhom or a
dwarf snakehead alone in a 75gal tank (if that is big enough)

And does anyone know if a wolf fish is illegal in any of the states?
 
get a type of snakehead. there is 1 (im not sure which) that is small enough, but as aggressive as ya like

putting two mean fish together just means that in the end you'll have one mean fish left.
