Wolves aren't that bad in average. The issue is when they attack it's a lot worse than say a cichlid, they bite harder from what it seems and their teeth are much sharper from personal experience (I'm a brave soul with quick reactions), so the damage is worse, but ime they're like an oscar most of the time, maybe even less aggro. A lot of mine only nipped something that was new or that sat practically on their face. Other than that, left everything alone that left them alone. The risk is getting the exceptionally aggressive one who may kill everything.

I'm too scared to take a risk and put anything else in there with him. I have 2 other tanks that I'd like to move him to, but 1 has a Lungfish, Peacock bass, and a feeder goldfish that has managed to survive and the other tank has a Flowerhorn and 3 Senegal Bichirs. I think he would just tear up all the other fish.
 
Putting on some size, how big is he now dude?

I love how they “perch” themselves like that. Watch your fingers, mine has opened me up on more than one occasion! Funny thing is, mine eats flake food I give to baby guppies in his tank. And shrimp and pellets and marble crays, etc....

I either drop food in well above the tank or use tweezers. He's getting pellets, pieces of tilapia and beef heart. Not brave enough to stick my hand in there. It's weird how these guys are so much more active than a Mala.
