Depends on the individual fish...the one I had was real mean...made all the others hide in the upper corners of the aquarium and constantly chased them, had to get rid of him.

Depends on the individual fish

I believe this to be true of all fish. I have a P. socolofi and L. caeruleus who are just devilfish and my M. auratus is nice as can be... unless you go into her nest.
Generally speaking though, they tend to be moderately aggressive.

See now that's weird my yellow lab is the dominant guy but he is relaxed along with my other guys

Yes individual fish have their own personalitys.. and i also found them to change as they mature.. one that maybe very aggressive can become mild and easy going... but africans in general are aggressive towards each other.. they will stress the less dominant one to death.. and you may not even notice it happening.. so when you get a mix.. that works out.. it is wonderful.

Several factors play into aggression/territoriality - sex of the fish, size of the tank, number of tankmates, number of individuals per species, feeding schedule, and decor (besides each fish's personality).

What size tank are you working with?

Well of you look at my last post that's the tank mates and it's 80 gallons and here are my rocks I'll send a pic and I feed them every day !!!
