All I can say is Silver Arowana...Mine is being fed on Freeze dried krill/shrimp and a couple feeders for treats.... But he/she could go on strictly prepared food if need be... But mine is a gentle giant (18").

Pseudodoras niger in my opinion as mentioned by Bgonz and Danny.
I've seen that cat in my lfs and are quite docile. Well, cute too.

There is a type of leporinus that gets pretty big, cant remember the name now.
Tin foil barbs.
long nose distichodus (Distichodus lussoso) gets about 16 inches
Black shark (Morulius chrysophekadion) gets about 20 inches.
Maroon Shark (Leptobarbus hoeveni) gets about 20 inches as well.
Redfin Prochilodus (Semaprochilodus taeniurus) gets about 12 inches.

I was driving around today and was thinking about this....proof that I've been thinking about fish way too much
but I can think of pacus, bala sharks...

Just go with a giant goldfish or koi. Or how about a buffalohead or grass carp. They can get HUGE!!!

Clown loaches are predators when adults, adult Koi need atleast 300 gallons per fish and prefer cool water, archerfish are predatory, and scats need marine as adults.

Some angels can be agro, and I have heard tangs are pretty agressive. They use the spine at the base of their tail to cut other fish.

Clown Loaches become predatory?

Clown Loaches become predatory?

That's what I have been hearing.

Distichodus sexfasciatus are very pretty and get large. But their ravenous plant-eaters. I've got 6 distichodus affinis I'd like to get rid of. They're fast, sleek, and interesting, but they can destroy aquarium plants in a matter of minutes. They chewed all my java fern down to twigs.

bala sharks get pretty big...
