This is a question for people who have had experience owning oscars, red devils, and midas cichlids. Which of those is the most aggressive towards other fish? Generally speaking of course......
 
I would say Red Devil, mine is constantly chasing fish and actually kille my parrot fish.
 
red devils and midas can both be very aggressive, and individual specimens can make a tank a one-fish tank. Oscars, on the other hand, are very much mild, peaceful cichlids in general.
 
midas and red devils generally have the same aggresion level many need to be solo in there own tank
 
Midas > red devil > Oscar

Midas is more aggressive than rd just because they're bigger.

Agree...

In most cases...

Though I am currently raising a Midas who is kind of a gentle giant, so there are always exceptions to the rule.
 
Is it just me or midevils seem to be the most agressive as they carry genes of both midas and red devil... I have had pure midas and devils and midevils are more agressive...
