I read somewhere (probably from practical fish keep magazine) thats gold wolf love to hunt in a pack so a shoal of gold wolf would be more interesting to watch than a solo one

With me I just have to take everyone into extreme consideration I don't want to unneccissarily lose fish or anything. And my curu is my only concern but he's also the main fish. And your dovii is big! I saw the vid on YouTube, definitely wanna grow them out to a decent size and hope for the best, good luck with that, how big are they now? The gold if active like that may trigger the others to attack him so be careful. And if you can pm me about the kesselleri would be helpful to get some info on the behavior and I will tell you my plans there as well, thank you. I know golds like to shoal but my tank simply isn't big enough to accommodate 6-8 with the already remaining stock and I rather stock my tank to my current footprint than plan for future cause I don't know when or how much bigger I will be able to get. We will see I have to plan and such. Hopefully I can get one. I assume it'll be around 170 if I were to get one now.
I only had luck in mixing hoplias with erythrinus. hoplias seem more chill then ery's. there mean little bastards. I tried moving over the red. the gold went crazy on him LOL. and the other wolf didnt do jack crap. did not care. I got some good vids of them so Ill post them up in a few days or so. My gold wolf i had my orino ate him LOl.
For schooling of gold wolves. I think i rather have one. They are very aggressive feeders. I could magine a wolf pack!
Yea my ery and mala are chill, the curu throws his weight around sometimes, maybe it's just his mood or he feels he needs to keep the others in check, not sure lol. He gives a bit of a chase maybe once a week that I see to the mala and jag, ery he's been treating like the bichirs so far. And doesn't always work the first try maybe you could have tried again, maybe it was because the ery shows more of a resemblance than a Hoplias, and is also more active causing it to bother the hoplerythrinus. And the gold that was with the hop. sp. got eaten? I'd be upset.. Guess you know the sp. can't go in yet. And yea I read they're more aggressive feeders solo. A pack would be cool to see hunt.
Small update: I assume curu ate the ery. though I don't see why he hasn't eaten the bichirs as they are the same thickness, maybe the length attributes to it, but it was kinda my fault I skip feedings sometimes and I've done so with the ery in there and everything was fine but this time I guess the curu didn't feel like waiting. Also I just came home today to see someone beat the jag up bad, guess someone got tired of his attitude. He does puff his gills at everyone so I guess he had it coming. As far as that everything's been fine. 
Lol it happens, and it's understandable he viewed the ery as food, he was half the length and less than half the girth, I blame myself.
