What is the least aggressive cichlid?

[CichlidGluttony]

What is the least aggressive cichlid in your opinion? I don't want people to start hating on weaker cichlids I just want your opinion. I am not a big fan of super aggressive cichlids I look more for personality and intelligence and I like to have communities.

My gold severum is pretty peaceful...has a fairly small mouth too. Idk if its the least aggressive cichlid though. Discus and angel fish are pretty peaceful also.

Probably blue acara's, green terrors, oscars, rams, and most severums!

Lol? You think GTs and oscars are the least aggressive? Seriously? I've heard of many peoples GTs and oscars killing other fish which were also cichlids.

I can tell you've never owned a GT or an oscar...also blue acaras can be pretty mean as well.

lol gt's are one of the cichlids whos temper can really vary I have had gt's just as aggresive as red devils... I had a male that was a crazy glass banger... I have also had gt's that run from fish half there size I guess it just depends on the particular fish... oscars are in the same vote as gt's

I've kept a lot of peaceful cichlids, but by far Keyhole's have been the most peaceful for me. If you're looking for something that gets big and relatively peaceful, go with a Pearsei.

Well every cichlid is aggressive in some way but ill go with rams, angels, ebjd,

jaguar, synspilum , both have never chased or even flared on another fish
