he's super highly aggressive..i put in a 16'' maybe bigger silver aro n my mono took off a few scales of the new aro..he does this to every dam fish i put in the tank..i understand he is basically sayin this is my tank but idk if i am goin to keep him..my azul n orino can careless lol they aint aggressive like my mono..my tanks i cant set up until feb so idk what to do..grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr:nilly:
 
My Ven. Orino is kind of the same way. If a fish can survive the first week in with her then she wont badger them too much after that. But that first week is almost constant harassment for the new fish. Not too violent really, but more of constant relentless nudging, head butting, and mouthing. Shes killed 2 pretty good sized largemouth bass. Both of which were in the 16" range.
 
It's a perfectly natural reaction in an overcrowded tank. I would suggest stop adding fish until you have a larger tank set up.
 
Bounce the mono homie. You can always get another mono on the low when you get the monster up and running.
 
eat some fish an chips in front of him. might open his eyes
