I want to ask: in your opinion which is the most aggressive, mean, kick a** chiclid I can buy to put into my 90 gallon tank? He will be the only one in there or perhaps I can have 2??

I will be stocking next weekend so input is needed asap!
 
Red Devil's are pretty agressive.
 
Flowerhorn, Trimac, pretty much any
Vieja family fish, female Festae (gets wonderful colors), Grammodes. If that was my tank and I was going to get 1 fish for display I would get a high grade flowerhorn. A black nasty (Cichlasoma haitiensis) would be a good choice, but might eventually need a bigger tank. It would definately want that whole tank for itself lol.
 
hmm

I would think a jaguar cichlid would look good in that tank.

I have heard that Wolf Cichlids put on great shows in their tanks, but don't know if a 90 would be big enough.


There is a big ole dark colored cichlid a buddy of mine has in his 120 gallon. I can never remember what it is called. Starts with a M and is spelled wierd. Like manganese or something close. He is the size of an oscar, but will chase you down the tank as you walk by and will even bite at the glass if you put your finger up against it....Just so you know, I would not put said finger in the tank.

hmm, well this guy is solid black. I thought all jaguars had the pattern to them.
 
How could I forget a jag?! I feel like a bad jag owner. Add that and Paratilapia polleni (if you can find some) to the list. Buttikoferi can be wicked mean as well.
