What is the Pound 4 Pound toughest/nastiest cichlid

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Like a few people have said on here Neetroplus nematopus, in breeding mode, is pound for pound the most aggressive cichlid on the planet... put a Red Devil the same weight against a Neet... no chance. A convict against a Neet, a poor second. Dovii the same weight as a Neet gets shredded.
 
My h. Deppi will beat the piss out of any dovii lol. Not really, but he is a killer for sure. No signs of aggression and goes right for the underside to kill. I've seen him bite off swordtails heads off.

Pound for pound.... convict all the way. I had a convict in with Africans for years. At 3 inches, he dominated every 6 inch African in the tank. When breeding, not even the foot long cats would venture into his area.
 
A 6" RTC would love to swallow any 6" cichlid. Or at least try to after he kills it. J/k they're predatory, not necessarily aggressive, but still your dovii don't have a leg to stand on there.

Anchovie I have to agree with u on channel cat. Most of the time my 18" blue channel cat is pretty laid back in a 180 community tank wit eight other cichlids. One morning I started to notice unusual bite wonds on my 12" bull Midas I could not figure out where they came from I thought scratches from drift wood. The other night I was doing fish room matienseidas was being very territorial he kept picking on catfish well mr cat was not having that next time that midas crossed that line cat bit Midas head a dragged him across the tank when Midas was released I finally knew where thosearks came from

Thats cool, but Cats ain't Cichlids lol

Anybody had any super aggressive Salvini's?

I had a crazy aggressive Green Terror, he's in my mates tank now and keeps every cichlid in there with him to the bottom of the tank.
 
I know I was just sayin but IMO I would have to say veija guleattus probspelled wrong I have a 5"one that is nasty as $;&/. Has Dovii running for cover
