Which is the most aggressive SA/CA cichlid in your experience/opinion?

[sg1]

Well, its not a Cichlid, but my Black Shark is the most agressive fish Ive ever had and its not even close. As far as cichlids go, pound for pound the melanochromis auratus probably takes the cake. My Red Devil is pretty agressive too.

Out of all the fish I've personally owned, I would have to say my Red Devil is the most aggressive.

I jumped from an Oscar, GT and JD to a Dovii. Compared to the Dovii the other might as well be guppies.

My Midas cichlid has killed two sting ray, and i never use to wear gloves while cleaning the tank until i got him. He follows you around the tank biting the glass and his own reflection.

I had one of these and they were very aggressive for an african cichlid. He was always picking on the other africans.

Yeah, if an Auratus got to be the size of some of the large Central American Cichlids, wow, imagine the carnage........
