i don't really understand the grammar you used in the construction of this sentence, so i'll do my best to interprete what you were trying to say-

"Salvini cichlids are the only one out of the three cichlids that I (XR) mentioned, that stay under 10 inches adult size for both sexes."

If this is the Correct question that you were asking, i will counter with the simple question of- Proove it.

Find me Both Sexes Male and Female Grammodes and Istanlums, over 10" long.

I've kept Africans for 20yrs and without a doubt, oz. for oz. the Haplochromis Sp.44 is the most aggressive fish I have ever kept. Two of my 3 tanks have one and they are the dominant/boss of the tank, much more aggressive than several Mbuna and Peacocks I have and they are both smaller than the rest of the gang.

Years ago I had one that was so aggressive and a tyrant that I had to put him in the the Jardini I kept in my 125. That sucker took a few swipes at that Jardini that was 12 or 13 inches at the time.
 
The most aggressive I've ever had to deal with were Convicts, Salvinis, and a Fullbroni. And even though it's not a Cichlid...Pearl Gourami! I had 2 Jags in with it to grow out...it messed them both up...biting one of the Jag's tail to the flesh:eek:
 
I have only kept a few commons but for me it would be dempsey's then convicts.

Pound per pound the auratus can be nasty. Red Monkey (hybrid Cichlid) is the nastiest of them all. RM is much more aggressive than my JD, Convicts, and my Red Devil.
