Which is the most aggressive SA/CA cichlid in your experience/opinion?

Red Devils, mine kill anything I put in the tank, including Piranha's :]

The most aggressive cichlid you could get at petsmart or petco would haveto be the midas cichlid, killed a shoal of piranhas.

Dovii - size, muscle, speed and furthermore teeth!

Convict mouths are too small... Therefore they would not be able to stand up in a major battle for very long, they would probably be more likely to fight guerilla style haha

i had a 6" con pop a 12" jags eye right out of it's socket. it was nasty and just hanging there. cons are tuff fish. there smaller mouths just mean more pressure per square inch. if you grab someones arm it does not hurt but if yu pinch someones arm it hurts like hell.

i think the most agressive is a green terror it killed my 2 paroons, eel, and really injured my dwarf snakehead until it grew

 

[sal123]

i would have to say Jags

I've never had a dovii or an umbee but have had most of the fish mentioned in this thread. Pound for pound winner is the neetroplus nematopus. Festae would be #1. I had a ten inch male that attacked everything (successfully), including a 13'' managuense (which is no slouch either). Festae's and red devils are genetic gladiators. They are mean and extremely gifted at it. I would say thet are more ''athletic'' then the jags and dovii. Combine this with the Festae's size and demeanor, that makes them # 1.

This thread is awesome, it shows who is a moron and who has a reasonable level of intelligence, knowledge, and critical thinking skills.

my 3 inch convict pushes my 3 inch festae around and won`t back down from my 6 inch tiger oscar,
