it doesnt matter if you keep the title as most or least aggressive, the answer is the same. every fish is different when it come to the larger intelligent cichlids. for example my GT was a powerful tank boss yet he was soft enough to let two 1" uaru swim and rest with him and even steal food from his mouth. he went all parental with them. but i do know that other people have had GT's that re nothing but hannibal lecter in a small body and have to be kept alone. others are so wimpy they get punked by firemouths and severums.
kept a 13in+ gold clown knife with a 11 in oscar fine....they measured each other up for a few days but were fine after....each fish is different, just way out the the worst thing that could happen and if its worth it get the fish you want
the GT will be more agreeable with tankmates
in my experience GTs have always been the wussy ones when compared against other chiclids,

i would say a green terror but all fish act differently.The oscar isnt so much aggressive as it just doesnt let anyone bully it.If another fish bothers an oscar the oscar usually will grab it with its mouth and proceed to take the attacker for a ride around the tank by smashing it into the glass or rocks/gravel whatever.Thats why I love oscars-theyre kool with other fish but the other fish learn respect real quick if they act up.
Like i said,it depends on the fish.I had a green terror that cleared out my tank many years back of anything living except for a pleco.headbanger_jib;2313866; said:
Green terror is typically very aggressive. I haven't had Salvini. Oscars are like hungry, messy dogs. I have had one that was very aggressive but she had be scorned by her boyfriend. That particular one had to be netted when I cleaned the tank. Usually though they are pretty lax, only getting excited by food.
