I'm looking for any type of wolf except Aimaras. If anyone know of a Lfs that has any in stock it would be greatly appreciated.
 
yep, you bought the other one right? Can't help it, i need more wolves. Plus my niece convinced me to set up a 30g for her and i plan on getting a red wolf. Wan't to try another community since my tank is empty and boring. Also forgot to mention i have a 9" Gatf & Atlantic tarpon that i'm willing to trade, hopefully there are some hobbyists in socal that got some Golds or lacerdae from George Or Ken thats willing to sell or trade.
 
nice. i was hoping it hadn't jumped. i don't think there are very many out there right now. i haven't seen any at an LFS in at least a year or 2 and other than wes there haven't been any coming in. F paying more than twice what was wes is charging by going to Shark Aquarium.
 
I hear ya, not to mention the shipping fees. Although George was selling his lacerdaes and golds for a decent price, But i'm just not a big fan of Shipping fees when we can get almost any fish in socal locally. I already asks a couple of suppliers to get any wolves if its on their list so in the mean time just testing my luck with local hobbyist. One of my Supplier said he can get wolves from Peru but does not know the name, same thing with some of the vendors here who has them listed as "Peru Wolves" Don't know if they're Erythrinus or you average mala. How is your blackie doing? mine seem to already grew 2inches and ate all his tankmates.
 
the one i got back in november is doing great and the one i got from the most recent shipment is doing fine as well. first night he ate a 3in GATF. i was not happy. brings the total to 6 with 4 big ones and 1 small/medium and 1 small. i've had the red wolves before that are brought in by ichthyoligist or whatever his name is. they grow SUPER slow but should be in fine in a 30gl for awhile. but that guy is a jerk, so i won't buy anything from him anymore.
 
HAHAHAHAHA i know what you mean, i felt uncomfortable when i stopped by to pick some up back in the day he was jumpy felt as if he thought i was going to rob him or something. But in the end he was a cool fella its stressful being a college professor.

OOOOO so you were the one that beat me to it, You keeping both in the same tank?
 
nope, keeping the one from Nov in a 120 and the new one in a 60. keeping the rest of my GATF's in a separate 40gl growout.
 
Bump anyone know where i can get a Rainbow wolf/red wolf aka E.Erythrinus?
