baby Hoplias aimara ?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
yes i have two , i m thinking of trying them together in a larger size tank with lots of hides . there just around 6 inches at the moment. right now i have them in a divided 45 breeder no tank mates at the moment lol.
 
I'd recommend a bigger tank, atleast a 75 I'd say and some dithers if you're trying to cohab the two even at this size. And a peacekeeper. Only JL has had multiple aimaras together, I think he had 5. It could be a situation where you need more than 3 for it to work. Be very wary. Maybe he can shed some light.

thanks moe , the 45 is very temporary . i got two because i figured i can always sell one of down the road . this was the first time i seen aimara , and always secretly wanted one .
then when i seen them there was no amount of talking my self in to not getting one or two lol
 
Well I'll say you should try both out in the community setting at the same time and see how it goes, maybe add a mala to the mix so one wolf doesn't get all the beating from another. Then if it doesn't work try each one separate and choose the better behaved one. What do you plan to have for tankmates?

As what Moe said.

Would add if you don't feel like adding more wolves, perhaps birchirs could work too.
 
Pleco should be fine. Although not my preference due to all the waste (poop) potentially will be made.
