You're right each individual fish has its own personality, as we do. Some wolves can be rather timid and become dominated by fish that they could easily kill, some will be mellow but if provoked wreak havoc on the fish pestering it, or some are just plain MEAN...LOL. They will not only kill b/c being hungry, they just dont want to share the tank at all. The main things I have seen from wolves are like you mentioned....they are UNPREDICTABLE...they can change at any time, and even a wolf who has lived in a comm. for a while will not back down from a fight if challenged. To the OP I would advise you get a Red wolf due to the tank that you have.

all my wolves back down from a fight from something that is bigger than themselves.

And that saddens me...LOL....but Channa weren't all of your wolves still babies around the 3.5in mark. I have even heard that most dont get that mean streak till at least around a foot, each one is different but I do remember your very PASSIVE wolves....I want you to get one with attitude...LOL...

i also had one at more than a foot and one at 6 inches. :D
the footer was the only one that was aggressive.
but he still had tankmates.

So he was the one to keep....allowed tankmates but from the aggressiveness im sure he wouldn't bck down from a fight. Thats a good type of wolf to have if u dont like species tanks, will not start the fight but will finish it. And allows for a more interesting tank with more than one type of fish.
