thou i dont encourage this but sometimes which fish is the most aggressive question keeps popping out , video not mine just to share[video]http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/h3xZpIYccnc/?fr=rec1&FR=LMIDDLE[/video]


lol , just dont piss off the wrong wolf
 
that cichlid is a jaguar
 
IMO don't put necessarily aggression and predation together, there are fish that are less aggressive than others but stronger, smarter and faster. One example is the african tigerfish, they might not be that aggressive in the tank but who knows what kind of beasts are they in the wild.

--Personally I think the most aggressive fish is the Giant Snakehead, but cmon SH are overrated.

i think depends on how the giant snakehead is raised , i presume it to be big red micropeltes ?

if you raise it in solo in a tank always fed with live feeds , the aggression is quite different from the one fed off live and in a community tank , in the wild if you see chomped up fish into halves floating ,its always the work of big red
 
Yeah but cmon I still can't understand why the C. micropeltes is so STRONG, their teeth are pretty tiny in comparation with other fish's teeth. It just might be the fact that their whole mouth is actually well-built of muscle? I don't really think the Micros are that aggressive in the wild though, maybe when they defend their young or anything like that. Regardless... I don't like that much the snakeheads, I like more the Wolves.
 
Tank is to small fish should never be together and the worst part is that Jag will never stop messing with that wolf.
 
I have had a micropeltes in a community tank and watched it turn on a severum one night, i lay next to the tank and it just hit the severum.
One bite and the severum just twitched a little, sank to the bottom and died.
If that is not predatory & aggressive then i just dont know what is, this micropeltes was the only fish to hold its own with my Jardini also.

I did see something which said they can be kept in community tanks with other large fish, whilst i don't doubt this is the case i also read something just as important... "don't keep a micropeltes with anything you wouldn't mind losing"
