The most aggressive freshwater fish in the world?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
If we are talking total damage done, the list has a few of the brutes.
If we are talkin' pound-for-pound, A-hole ornery. A mature red-tailed black shark, Epalzeorhynchos bicolor, is an absolute hazard for many tank mates.
 
I've had the opportunity to work/keep most of the fish mentioned in this thread. The only fish that I have feared for my personal safety was a very large Hoplias Aimara that I was keeping. I honestly believed that the beast had bad intentions for me and it was capable of carrying out those intentions. 'Mangle' is the word that comes to mind when I think of what that fish can do to my arms/hands.
