time to upgrade my red devil's tank. if i get a footprint like 8 x 2.5 will i be able to keep other fish with him? he's been a loner for most of his life. i suspect it has a lot to do with individual personality, just looking for personal experiences. otherwise, he is going into a 90 or 180.
red devil in a 300 - still aggressive?

I would go with the otherwise option: 90g......A Red Devil who has been ALONE for its whole life is pretty much a fish that lives up to its nameRED DEVIL......
RD personalities are always larger than their tanks. If you are lucky yours will like other fish or at least tolerate them. (i'm lucky mine likes the JD's he is with) More likely your RD will fight the other fish, just keep an eye on it and see what happens, just be ready to pull the fish out if needed.
yeah i agree if he is already that large and has pretty much been alone then he wont tolerate tankmates, this goes for pretty much any of the large cichlids needless to say the ones who are already borderline on tankmates even if raised with them
