African cichlids tend to not be so nice, but I wonder how much of this reputation is due to its size.

Jewel cichlids particularly the five spot(elongatus) . THIS FISH HOLDS IT OWN + 2, and other african cichlids like the hornet.Usually african cichlids are more aggressive.

Ok, other than a red devil (I don't think I will ever have another) are there any other S.A. chichlids more agressive?

Most would say Umbee, Dovii, Festae.
