Thanks Mud! You ARE a life saver, any other tips for having myself an active wolf? I am currently craigslistshopping for a tank for my little buddy

Just give him a cave, dim lights, fake or real plants (some floating), a soft substrate (sand does good). Overall they aren't real difficult to keep

I was thinking about getting a night light for him, this is gonna be HIS tank. I was also considering peagravel or river rocks for the bottom because I have tons left over from my 125.

But, sadly, it's time for class. ill be on later for more advice!

H'okay so. I have decided on a Suncat(Eclipse Cat) and I got an amazing deal on one(so cheap from my LFS I can't even say) but NOONE around here has heard of a Wolffish. I decided on a rainbow, because I like the color orange. I have 2 of our LFS owners calling their dealers tomorrow, but does anyone know the success rate of purchasing online?

Suncat's are great. I had 2 that I grew to just over 6" and ended up selling them. I really regret it. I'm probably going to get more in the future.

I highly doubt your LFS will be able to get an Ery ery. Typically you have to purchase them from an online importer. Sharkaquarium.com currently has them in stock (or did). I've had great success buying fish online, that's how I buy all of my "main" fish. Shipping is expensive but it's a trade off. Might not be too bad since Shark aquarium is in NJ and your in PA.

It depends on if you catch them on a good day.. They are a good seller but it can be difficult to get a reply through email sometimes. Never tried the phone so that's probably the route to take.

I'm not a fan of schooling fish.. except for the Congo Tetra's.. dunno why but those are sweet looking.
