lol....so i bought a red devil (might not even be a red devil for all i know) today at petco for $7.99....it's about 3 1/2 inches long. tossed him in my 75 gallon along with a few other cichlids. he started beating up all my fish, then my sveni pike, which is about 5 inches long quickly swam up to him and latched onto it's face all the way up to the eye balls. there's no way this pike could eat him, but yea i dont want him hurting or dying from stress. they both just sat there motionless in the tank, pike holding the red devil. i tapped on the glass and said 'hey you two let's break it up'. sure enough they did, but did it again in a few seconds. so i got the red devil chillin in a 10 gallon until my cousin brings his 30 gallon up here tomorrow. what kinds of cichlids can be put in the same tank as this devil?

this what you're talking about? cuz i bought him last week from the same store, kept in the same tank.....

see when i bought the blue guy, they had him labeled as 'large cichlid', with no real name. originally they wanted $29.99 but i got him for $10.99 after nobody bought it for a few weeks.
