Thank you guys, especially dogofwar, for the most excellent and authoritative input. I much appreciate learning from you easily what had taken you much time, effort, labor, and sometimes pain.
Half a year update on the lone surviving wolf, one for four. As I threatened above, I had taken it out of the 4500 gal and it then spent almost half a year in a 240 gal with our wels. Unfortunately the one-eyed survivor can't catch a break. The wels didn't like the new addition, despite being fine with a black ear shark catfish and 3 balas and 3 tinfoils for tank mates. Nothing horrific but small damage abound on the wolf. This is the last video where the wolf is with the wels. I moved it to a safe 240 gal right after. (The balas and tinfols had gone into the carp exhibit even before that.)
The video is not wolf-friendly, so don't expect a NatGeo footage... in fact everything opposite:

THE END
Ironically I just had to kill the last wolf fish myself... as a consequence of our venture applying for licenses to exhibit prohibited and conditional fish species and the ensuing inspections by the Florida Wildlife Commission. (Will be covered in a separate thread. Please, don't ask any questions in this thread.)
It was doing well and no one had been bothering it in the 240 gal where they all 4 grew up together.
Middle first row. Final size ~18"-20".
