Wow he is just a beautiful fish full of personality. Took me forever to find one! He has already chosen a cave to defend lol. Pretty cool, most fish are skiddish right off the bat and while I think I still make him a little nervous, it looks like in just a few hours he has already established himself as #3 from the top in the pecking order, very impressive!!!!

Nice one, whats number 1 & 2? :D

Hehe these 2 guys here, the jag snaps at anything that comes near his rock except for these 2. when he see's them he is ducking for cover:) Definantly my 2 most dominent fish, its hard to say which is more dominent between the 2 but as far as attacking other fish, the black shark is by far the meanest fish in my community. Personality wish, he is much more antagonistic than the devil. The shark is about 11 inches, the devil probably closer to 12. Fortunately the shark dosent have teeth like the devil and the jag, but he is very big and very strong and he is so much faster than the cichlids he is more like a battering ram and he does knock the crap out of any of the other fish that rub him the wrong way or simply get in his way. Even without teeth, he can potentially do as much damage or more than other fish who do have em. He's like a freakin fish torpedo. specially around feeding time.
