need gold wolf fish info: hoplerythrinus unitaeniatus

[primetime3wise]

there's not too much info out there about these fish. they reach about 14"-16", correct? and from what i have read they are very aggressive and more active than most other wolf fish species? is this correct?

most importantly, i was wondering if they can be cohab'd and kept together??? i know people always ask this about wolf fish, but i have heard of it being done with this species, even i think i read on another forum someone bred them.

i was thinking like 3 in a 125g, or just 1 in a 75g until it becomes huge then into a 125g.

seems like an underrated species, in terms of it being more active than most wolf fish and very aggressive at the same time.

I dont think they grow quite that large,maybe ten inches but they are very active and agressive,more so than the reds.My eight incher chases the other fish around the 180 untill my little Grammodes comes out and checks him lol.

Got a pair in my 180 co-habing with lots of fish with no problems at all. My largest is 10-11", and grew from 5" in just over 18 months the other i bought 5 months ago and has grown a couple of inches. I've not seen any aggression though the various other occupants are generally weary however, I've had one instance of accidental injury through my smaller wolf tagging my Tat during feeding but otherwise no problems.

I'm hoping that they will make it over 12" but they have plenty of time to do so and a few upgrades ahead of them.

Oh and they jump. A lot.
