Ok my stock has been fine for a while now but out of no where im beginning to see that it wont last much longer now. My stock is as follows( 8 inch mala wolf fish, 8 inch clown knife, 5 inch jd, 5 inch sveni pike, 3 inch texas cichlid) Never had a problem except for the jd chasing the mala but yestersay i came home and my ck had the jaw outline of the mala on the back of his back end and i watched him puff up at a few of the fish a couple times. I figure one of these days he's gonna take someone out. My options are to keep all the fish except the mala or keep the mala and sell the other fish. What do you guys think?
 
I love all my fish equally but the wolf is my all time fav but the ck was a gift frim the fiance but she said it was ok if i sold it. I have a buyer for the wolf for $40 and a buyer for the ck for $30 hes just waiting to see which one o sell.
 
Would like to get this over with this weekemd b4 someone gets hurt. I would love to keep both and sell the others but it wouldnt work either way
 
unless you have plans for investing for a huge tank for the CK.. go with the wolf. don't know much about wolfs but know they generally stay to a manageble size. where CK's can up to around 30" ( some get bigger and some smaller i'm goign for a general size of a healthy fish) So your looking at something over 300 gallons iir?
 
I personally like the other fish more then the wolf. So I'd get rid of the wolf, but that's me. It's up to you.
 
gotta talk with the misses and see where she wats to go with this. its hard for me to decide because i see the advantages of keeping each fish
 
what size tank are you keeping them in? i would get a bigger tank if your tank isnt big enough and keep them all since you like your fish...

What does your GF/wife want? If she wants a certain fish then I would be nice and try to play around this. If she is indifferent then it's really all up to you.

My GF loves fish and has a fish tank of her own and wouldn't mind another, but my fish tank is mine. She should care less what I have. She may like one, but if it died the next day or I traded it she wouldn't be crying over it or make a fuss over "my" fish and tank. But each girl is different.:nilly: lol :D
