The Aimara is the big wolf fish there, look around 43 seconds, hes the one on the right of the video just hovering and has kind of a torn up tail. He seems kinda lazy and doesnt go after the feeders very often haha
I can see the fish eating the feeder at around 2:43, but I don't see an aimara. It is an awsome fish for sure and the tank goes without saying, but in my experience with wolf fish that is not an aimara. (I do have an idea about what an aimara looks like)

It looks to me like it's a big black wolfish. I have never seen an Aimara that timid.

Do blacks even get that large?

I have never seen an Aimara in real life, I was just guessing from the photos i've seen. Ive just seen blacks under 20" and they look way darker than this guy.

Sorry, the wolf fish in that vid is not an aimara. The show has mis-identified it.
