Black belt

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
they are aggressive within there own species...very territorial
 
Mine is the dominant fish in my tank and only chases a female JD around and an oscar that I brought back today, otherwise he is peaceful
 
Mine was the king of my vieja's tank. It was very teritorial but not aggressive.

Here are the pictures I took before I gave him away.

it wasnt super mean but wasnt a striaght sissy, id say like a dempsey, would fight back when pickd on but would go out of his way to beat on somthin.
