You've got a nice male BTW. Males without females are far kinder than those with but that doesn't make them nice, and they get big, so he'll be needing a nice spacious aquarium with tankmates that aren't big enough to swallow and can hold their own.

Same fish... same story... different country
We too had the same problem when O. mossambicus was introduced as a food fish... till it conquered our water systems and displaced native species....
But a few decades later... you would no longer see O. mossambicus in the rivers....
They have been displaced by O. niloticus...
Same country... same story... different fish
