It's strange cause I have always kept red wolves for years and never one have done similar. Hopefully little red is ok. Any updates?

Same here I don't have any issues with jumping wolves for years, but thee few folks had same issued. /scratching head...
 
hope for the best! I had a sp tuahuayo die on me. his face was the same way. but he got chewed on.. this is a first for me
 
Sadly he did not make it thru the night, I'm done with Wolves now as this just keeps happening. I switched up the tank and its home to a group of dwarf puffers now

Sorry to hear that, if I were you I would empty the tank water and restart a new cycle treating with medicine for couples weeks then try again 1 last time :D I'm pretty sure something going on with your water that effecting specific to wolf fish.
 
Well I did a 100 percent water change, the dwarf puffers have been in there 2 days now and are doing great actually, I have no idea why this happens to some people with Wolves but I'm calling it quits on them. The 15 dwarf puffers are very entertaining so I'm relatively fine with it. Sucks failing at something though.

Glad to hear you having fun with those puffers, it's fun fish but my vision seeing you get back to wolves later :D
 
I think certain people have curses to a certain type of fish as bad as that sounds lol. I've tried keeping green Severums multiple times with them to just randomly die. Sorry to hear that though. Good luck with the puffers. We have 5 dwarfs and they're so much fun to watch.

Sorry to hear that friend. I was afraid you were gonna lose the Wolffish after I saw the last series of photos and mentioned it. When a fish gets a bacterial infection that bad,it's just almost inevitable. It looked like the stuff I dealt with a few years ago in one of my smaller tanks. Bad news stuff!!! I hope that the 100% water change got rid of whatever it was. Surely it did, especially if you didn't declorinate the water right away. Chlorine will get it for sure, but it kills good stuff as well. I've never kept any of the little, pea sized Dwarf Puffers. My teenage daughters have been on me to get a big school/shoal of them for years. Keep us informed on them, and do your best to convince me that I need to invest in some. My daughters are counting on you!!! Lol!!! Good luck to you friend.
