Hi, i have just been lumbered with an unwanted wolffish and have no clue as
to what he eats or any special treatment ive tried him with frozen lancefish
and mussells and cockles but no joy
He hasnt eaten for three days now so help would be appreciated, thanks

If it is the Hoplias malabaricus you got, then you got a real
killerfish!
I go to the Brasilian Amazon every year and there I have seen a lot of
them in their natural habitat.
It eats anything that it can swallow and that is a lot. Naturally it
will eat live fishes but I would be surprised if it did not eat
mussels, peaces of dead fish and stuff like that. Avoid meat of
mammals including your fingers. Seriously, when it grows up it will be
able to cause severe damage to your hand.


Good luck
