What is something that is fairly common and pretty cheap that is really mean that I can put in my 29 gal? Thanks Chad
 
Phago maculatus, around $30 gets 10" max. and is a very distinctive monster.
 
a pair of Figure-8 Puffers.. They will tear the crap out of things.. You could also add a Butis Butis, which is a nice brackish ambush predator.

If you are looking for something to slam its face on the glass.. I wouldn't reccomend putting it in a tank that small.
 
Those are all really good suggestions but this tank is at my dads and I was looking for something a little easier to take care of. It is my fault though because I did not explain myself. I am sorry because I was in a rush so it is my fault, but I couldnt find anything on the nat or carrib could somebody please explain? Thank you Chad.
 
Sound like you need a convict cichlid. Pretty aggresive and what some would call "a real man's fish".
 
You know I havent had one of those in a while. That sounds like a really good idea. I jsut wish I still had my old one he was an absolutley beautiful male with really long fins. He was a pink. Thank you for the suggestion and please keep them coming because I know alot of people have 29 gallons just laying around. Thank you Chad
 
I just got two firemouths for my 29g. They are not very aggresive but damn are they good looking fish. I also have N. brichardi in a 20g and they are super nasty. I had a male kill three females till he found the right one.

Nats and caribes are piranha but kept alone they turn into big babies, phagoes will allow 3 and a bagdad cat in a tank that size. Or go brackish and get a peir of archer fish for around $50
