I love the way they look, I had to get rid of mine because he was simply killing everything.. even went after the Pleco. a Juvenile ended up being alone in a 75 gallon and then I ended up selling him because of the aggression....
(note that is not my fish in the pic, just what I think a great Butti looks like.. I wish though.
)Yeah they look so nice when they get bigger! I know they get really aggressive.
But if the tank is big enough for them to setup territories, the aggresiveness usually goes away.

I use to have a breeding pair of buttikoferi. Both were about 8-9" and super aggressive. They actually never had a succesfull spawing but they tryed alot.
That is the problem, I live in a ****py and tiny NYC apartment.. there is barley enough room for me yet enough a huge tank. I wish I had a basement...redtailfool said:
Vitaly... with careful planning you can get rid of the smaller tanks and just get 1 big tank!! I have done that before in a tiny apartment and have met people who do that too....
It's true! My Cambodian friend eats eveything I save. LOL He ate an Aro, red devil and sturgeons. Too bad he didnt show up for a long time that I had to throw out a bunch of other stuff. Had some good stuff for him too. Arapaima, tinfoil barbs, snakeheads, etc etc. LOLCaveman said:
