Any issues with doing water changes with a wolf fish? Mine keeps going for my hand/arm.

It even attacks the siphon hose after I push it away. My hoplias mala. is only about 7 inches. I can't imagine how its going to act once much larger.

I have a plastic lid that it also jumps at if it sees a hand. Anyone have tips on how to weigh the hood down?

Best looking and low key without having big ass weights or water bottles on the tank (you know who you are) and don’t worry about it not being strong enough, any fish that blows through that will be dead on the spot

I suggested using long handled equipment in a lung fish thread. It will attack always just be careful.
