Couldn't figure this one out

I wasn't discounting your blue tex. If it is a killing machine and already has quite a surprising record, your blue tex may not stand a chance with a psychotic fish like that. Physical damages are quite fatal to fish even to cichlids.

I imagine you will be right in the long run...I will keep an eye on him as it grows. If he gets too aggresssive for the Tex, then I will dump him in the 465 gal with the monsters.

I find it quite interesting because when these fish were shipped to me, the big male(the one dead in the pic's) had almost killed the little one that I have now, it's dorsal and tail fins were completely gone..I had it in a quaranteen tank for a month healing and once it was ok I put it into my grow out tank...then it starting in on a killing spree and now the big one is dead....wierd how things work out.
