Hi,

some days ago a friend of mine and i had a discussion about which of the really big fishes, is the toghest and most aggressive.

The definition of "really big" was at least 3 feet of possible adult lenght!

I know many smaller very very aggressive and togh fishes, mostly snakeheads and perches.

But which is really the the toghest even in relation to it#s size? And i do not mean who is able to eat the biggest prey, because this would be a silurus glanis oder alligator-gar for shure, but they are not really aggressive the most dangerous about them is just their big mouth.

So my favorites are:

Channa Micropeltes
Hoplias Aimara
Hydrocynus Goliath
Bagarius Yarelli

as far as i know the bagarius and hydrocynus are the biggest and heaviest on that list, but the aimara and micropeltes are also really killers, so i'm not shure.

I guess even the really big lates would not be as dangerous, because of the lack of really big teeth...

Greetings
 
i heard wolf fish is really tough and mean.

cant snake heads get bigger than 3 feet? it says they can at my lfs...:confused:
 
Yeah i ment all fish which are able to get ober 3 feet! only two channas can reach such size, micropeltes and argus.

Greetings
 
I would say RTC or TSN, unstoppable appetite and they can eat stuff bigger then they are and they can reach 5ft+ in the wild
 
candiru(Vandellia cirrhosa), the fish is only two inches and im scared of it.

edit: oh missed the 3 foot requirement. new answer Hydrocynus Goliath
