As he is getting bigger, he is getting way aggressive. He pushing everything around. Which are an oscar, festae, two black be lts, a hybrid, two Red Devils, two catfish, a Pleco, and a midevil (which he particuraly hates.) I do not want to sell him for he is beautiful, but he is causing problems. All the other fish are afraid of coming out. The tank is a 125 btw. Also does he look like a pure Midas?

If you got him from a store, he is a midevil - if you bought him as a midas, from one of the reputable vendors such as Rapps, then yes. He's a beauty - and your tank is way overstocked - which is actually why none have been killed yet, so it's a toss-up. If he is your favorite fish, I would dedicate the tank to him only.

PS - as my giant gourami grew bigger and bigger, she started going through the exact same phase, and she now has her own 300 gallon tank. I'm very happy with this - You will, too.
 
Thanks for the input. I am just scared of taking a few fish out and making it easier form him to focus on bullying one fish.

my suggestion is if you like him enough you will get him his own tank if he is showing that much aggression towards other fish . If the other fish are all getting along great. But eventually you will have to thin out the herd or get a larger tank for them all.
