Hoplias Mala. 2 quick questions

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Wanted to provide an update on this. The wolf fish is back to normal and wants to eat. I've noticed that when it becomes pale it's possibly because its trying to camouflage. It only does this when the wolf Cichlid is near and the wolf fish is planning an attack.

The dovii is doing fine it just knows to steer clear of the hoplias. It has some scrapes but overall healing.


You are going to lose one of those fish. Wolfish don't like to be harrassed and you were already warned in previous post. You have a very aggressive juvenile Dovii Cichlid which will get even more aggressive as it matures. If the Mala gets a hold of the Dovii it maybe damaged even for life.

Yeah this is possible however this is a short term solution for the dovii which I will rehome. It's a long story but this fish was already beaten up and now I'm trying to heal it up.

They definitely will not be long term tankmates.
