What are the cichlids meaner than these ones?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
What about convicts? I know they are significantly smaller than the ones you have listed, but, they can hold their own with the big dogs especially when breeding.

What's the point of you asking a question when your denying everyone's answers. Have you ever owned any of them. Convicts aren't aggressive neither are firemouths :p. Try Midas. Blue acara, grammodes

I need to spark up my fish life

Oscars do fine as long as they stay established as top dog in the tank and can use their size to bully other fish. The problem I see is when the Oscar tops out at 12" and a Trimac or Red Devil hit 14+, and have that nasty Amphilophus attitude, it's over. Oscars are brutes but compared to a fish like you have on your list, they fall short of the mark...by a longshot. Imagine what an 18" territorial pissed off male umbee would do to a 12" Oscar. It wouldn't be pretty.
And Prashan, Black Belts might surprise you. They can be very aggressive and get some serious size in the right conditions. I'm not sure I would dismiss them so easily. Of course a lot of it will come down to the individual but read up on them, some owners have some highly aggressive BBs.

What would be the biggest size for a black belt? I knew veja types get so aggressive and mean sometimes. But aren't they generally listed below the ones in list if they are compared? What you think about uraru? I get to know about that fish recently and im just next to know nothing about that fish.

They are already in the list -pound to pound. :)
 
My convicts killed my red devil when they were breeding and they were a quarter his size so I wouldn't say they aren't aggressive. But yeah the ones listed are far more aggressive just throwing another fish out there. The guy listed every aggressive cichlid and then asked for more? Hard to list more when he has already listed them all...

lol Who wouldn't deny when someone say malawi and some similar fish would be more aggressive than meanest cichlids like trimac,dovii,umbee,beani? :D Yea I've have some of them at the moment like green terror,blue acara,oscar. I have convicts fry at the moment too.
Blue acara is a very peaceful cichlid comparing to others. So I can imagine what you know about them. :D You have to check my list again I think. midas and grammodes would be fine.(I've added reddevil and dovii instead of them as they do better than midas and grammodes)
 
Put a red tail cat in your tank and all your cichlids can argue about aggression in its stomach...the you can increase your own aggression by robbing the bank to pay for RTC's housing...
