I'm considering buying a 4 inch red wolf fish to add to my tank, I've wanted one for a long time and I finally found one. My issue is I have two true red terrors in my 125 gal and I'm afraid they might fight, I've got plenty of hiding spots and lots of live plants. My terrors are about 5-6 inches and are only eating frozen foods. I also have a school of 4 clown loaches a large common pleco a convict cichlid and a bichir. So far they all get along and I would hate to see any of them die if the start fighting. Good or bad idea?

It might be ok for awhile, but those festae will be tough on the tank mates as they get bigger. I don't have any personal experience with red wolf fish, but hear they are less aggressive than any other type of wolf fish. The thing with wolf fish is they have some serious teeth, so I would worry about the others. Maybe others who have more experience can chime in..
 
Probably not a good idea... I was thinking of throwing 1 in my 125 with my Jag until I saw a few videos on YouTube of people trying that mix. Look up "Jaguar Cichlid vs Wolf fish" on YouTube and you'll see what I mean

Not a good idea as the RT get larger they will take over that whole tank (there is a reason they are called red terrors) and you are getting close to breeding size and that tends to be the trigger
