Thinking about adding 1-3 12+'' wolves to the 18'' Royal Knife.

Has anyone tried this?

220 gal tank, planted.

Thx

Should be ok wolf stay to the bottom and knifefish can be aggressive but normally do fine in a semi aggressive tank

It has been done before in predatory community tanks. Larger tankmates/divers help to distract. Good thing is the clown knife is much bigger.

I had a wolf cichlid for two years, and I had to keep him alone. I'm not so sure about putting the two together; the store I bought him from told me that he had previously torn up a red tail catfish bigger than he was. So I'm not completely sure about this.
