I'm looking for a aggressive fish for my 60 gallon tank. I really like the looks of the red tail barracudas mainly because of those teeth sticking out, but I know they get to big for my tank. Are there any fish that will do fine in my tank that resemble the red tail? All I have in there right now is a 4" rhino pleco.

Smaller Acestrorhynchus sp.?
 
Could look at acestrorhynchus isalinae. Wont get too big and manageable in a 60g.

Hard to come by but keep an eye out as they will pop up occasionally.
 
Rainbow wolf fish or bichir. The only problem with the bichir is that the pleco might suck up its slime coat.
 
Could anyone give me an ID on this little guy? At my lfs and spotted him. He is roughly 2-2.5"

That is a rocket gar. 2-4 would be perfect in your tank because they are like piranhas. but they only eat feeders.
 
Not a rocket gar. Looks somewhat similar. It's in the barracuda family, acestrorhynchus isalinae.

Replied about in another thread.
