So i have owned 3 wolf fish in the past 5 years of fish keeping. The first was killed by my jag, the next some how jumped out of the tank, and the last was killed by my loiselli cichlid a relative of the jag. I dont have too much luck with them but from time to time i keep catching myself wondering what i would have to get rid of in my tank to get another. Right now i have a 75 growout tank up with ( 1 jag, 1 5 inch jd, 1 2 inch jd, 14 inch mota/loiselli cichlid, 1 convict, 1 sveni pike, 1 7 inch clown knife. Yes thats a lot of fish for a 75 but all are small and im just weeding out the fish that woont work in the future when i take the 150 out of the garage at my parents and get a bigger place after i get married. If i found another common wolf fish what would i have to get rid of to keep it in the 75 fpr about a year or so. All feeding is regulated to keep growth on the slower side but the fish do not starve by any means. Out of all the fish the ck is a fav due to the fact that its a fish my fiance bought me. What do you guys think...?
 
id say if the parachromis(s) killed the last wolf, id get rid of those. Course i prefer the para to a wolf so i wouldnt do that personally
