bought this guy about 1 year ago, he has proceded to kill all other fish except a synodontis cat and a Neo. Tetracephalus. he is not a tropheus sp. and he does eat the algae off the glass. any thoughts?

get 3-5 females for him of the same species and keep a divider handy in case. Some heavily armored catfish to redirect his aggression would be helpful getting him to accept the females.
