i'm going to get one , any information about rainbow wolf fish , can it live in community tank . any help will appreciated
 
Will get about 8-10 inches. Will need tankmates that are as big as it. Not too picky with food and will accept most prepared foods. If looking to add tankmates then will need 100g and also will need to introduce to other fish when small and don't feed live.

are they high aggresive with other fish ?
i'm going to have a pair about 3~4inch so any advice cares about them.
my tank has albino bichir 5~6inch and some cichlid 2~2,5inch does it fine to put them live in the same tank ?
thanks .
 
Mine killed his fellow ery ery. I've read they do better in slighlty larger groups. There is a member who has (or had) 4 together in a 90g that seemed to work rather well. I would not trust them with smaller cichlids and would probably have long term reservations about the poly as well.

I believe the member was IndyTexy

does it hunger ??
are they easy to have tankmate than other wolf fish ?

Pairs can lead to one. Will need a big tank and decor /plants to keep agression down. I used to keep mine with bichirs, tetras, barbs, catfish and nandus without problem.

I got it small and grew it up with tankmates. No I've food etc. Always made sure it was fed.

May run into prob with cichlids. Too territorial in my opinion. Either the fish will hide all day or eventually be nipped/stressed. Sometimes will tolerate.

Not as aggressive as a curupira. Not sure what you mean by does it hunger. Does it hunger for blood? Does it get hungry?

Tankmates need to be planned out. Gotta consider size it is being bought at. Tanks size. Decor and plants. Dithers or no dithers.

i have small tank size 40x40x20 does it possible for tankmate live with them
 
I see...I used to feed my guy about 3x per week. Kept it more active. Still able to tolerate tankmates with that feeding schedule.

Is the tank is in inches or cm?
