New piranha with wolf fish

[Brock11]

So I got this 5" piranha yesterday and I thought I would attempt to put him in with my 9" mala to see if just maybe they would leave eachother alone. (I know not the best idea, but it would be such an awesome combo.) 12 hours later experiment over. Tank will be divided today as another tank is prepared. Has anyone on here ever tried wolf fish with piranha?

Don't be stupid.....take him out now.....

Piranhas can't cohab with any other fish period.....there are hundreds of veterans that have tried and will tell you it will not work..might work for a day ....a week but eventually u will have a dead fish........don't make a stupid rookie mistake bc your stuborn please remove the fish


Edit

Just saw at the bottom of the picture that u have removed it....good....please listen to those on here that have experience instead of doing so called experiments which we all know the outcomes too

Yeah you are right. They can both be happy now.

What ever happened with the odoe?

Wolfish eat piranha in the wild, or the opposite.

He's in a different tank. The wolf grew to rapidly at first. But now the odoe is catching up.

Yeah there is a video on YouTube that you may have seen where the wolf fish backs down piranha and burrows its tail in the sand. But that was in a river and not a tank. So yeah I moved the piranha out.

You realize continously netting and trying ur little experiments stresses them out right?

Yeah my little experiments have had it netted twice. Once into the first tank and second to his new tank. He was never shy from the start like other rhoms I have kept. Not sure why but I'm glad.

It won't need to be netted for a long time now.
