I find angelfish to be nasty lol one of myne is horrible and the other is laid back :-) but each fish is different.
 
From what I've kept Dovii all day long.
VERY aggressive fish.
I have a 7" female that just attacks / Bites everything!
Dam thing even killed an 16" Black shark last year - Bloody stupid mistake on my part!
Even attacks my bigger cats that are 18" - 26"
She's a demonic freak - now living by herslf I hasten to add.
 
my 2.5" convicts have no problem standing up to my 9" butti..
how theyve managed to do that i have no idea, everything else gets destroyed
 
I have convict cichlids, and let me just say that they don't take crap from anynody. They have demeaned Oscars twice the females size, and she will defend her rock structure against my 19"Gar, even though she is only about 6". She even gets flustered when my friends get too close to the tank, no fear that's why I love them. Add the babies she just had.....she keeps the gar away, and has kept my 10" pleco from cleaning the glass anywhere near her home. Aggression is her hobby.

im interested in when my black nasty will actually get agressive...he an f1 8"...and i havent seen much agression from him. my 16.5 inch jag is a gentle giant..chases other a bit..but does try to kill any. the meanest fish i ever had was a grammode..my 8" would attack...brutaly...only suitable tankmate a 16.5 in jag...go figure!
 
The meanest I have ever owned was the red devil. After the experience with them taking over a 48*18*18 tank for themselves at 6" long I have decided not to go for anything more aggressive. :)
