Maintenance on Wolf / Aimara Tank - Tips? / Co Hab Pointers

[dr exum]

Wondering what folks are doing,

mine took a chunk out of a magic eraser, bit the alge wand, and gave me a full flare when i attempted to move the alge magnet....

anyone tried the chain mail gloves ?

when he gets to his more forever home i plan to construct a barrier i can either corral him with or split the tank...

- side note -

tank mates -

he lives with sailfin pleco - thinking i’m going to attempt Jardini co hab in his new tank - any tips other than the usual - change deco / water change - thinking of some sort of dither ? was going to try an endler colony but i’d bet the jar would pick those off....

thanks all!

Maybe try after lowering the water level for a water change. I know it works better before removing the water but seems like it’ll attack anything.

ya, that’s what i’ve been doing (top half is clean) , he’s not attacked the python yet.... he’s very fast ?

just may have to let the alge go....

watched a youtube of one biting owner... looks unpleasant....

may order this -

thanks for tip!

I don't think a Jardini will survive in there Wolfish too aggressive. Like kno4te stated Wolf will attack anything it's very territorial.

ya - i’ve been kicking it around.... he’s in there with pleco now... may be the most cohab i’m going to get....

Any tetras for cohab, probably too small to be worth chasing.

was going to do an endler colony

They would probably reproduce fast enough to be self sustaining.

What size is your tank? My guy isn’t that aggressive so I clean the tank without attacks. However he is in a 8x4 tank so there is plenty of room to keep away from my cleaning tools.
