So if it's a gamble that starts to turn bad I would need a 180 for each of them? But if I got that rainbow wolf it would get killed by the odoe? W
How big does the rainbow get?
I doubt the odoe will kill a red wolf...unless its like way smaller...my odoes a big baby, doesn't hurt anything in the tank with him.

I've seen mixed replies where some are mild mannered and others are very aggressive. The gap in size b/w both fish can create this and make it possible.

Will get 6-8 inches. Will be 6 inches for a while(years) before reaching a mature size of 8-9 inches let's say.

It's always a gamble when mixing fish. Especially fish from separate countries. I'msure red wolves and Malas have crossed paths and survived but not odoes as they are from Africa.

The chances are still in ur favor to mix the mala, silver dollars with the pike.

Should I get rid of the silver dollars?
I would keep them as they will be a good way to keep an aggressive and wolf odoe occupied with them than each other.

How long could a odoe pike live in a 75 gallon by itself. Or without anything that would harm it?

So the wounds on the pike are almost unnoticeable but yesterday I noticed it had a bubble on one of its eyes. The eye doesn't seem damaged and moves around like normal. The fish is still eating and acting normally. What should I do? Thanks

Throw in some salt, wc every other day till better and recheck ur water parameters. Post a pic. If not better or worse in a week then consider some tetracycline etc.
