i would have to say flowerhorn. i have an 11 inch kamfa and she hates when i do water changes. she will bite the syphon and wont give up. she hates when i stick my hand in their too. she took a chunk out of my arm already. very very aggressive. i have never owned a umbee but i heard they were extremely aggressive but in my experience flowerhorns get the vote.
Which is the most aggressive SA/CA cichlid in your experience/opinion?

my male red tiger motaguense weight for weight is probably the meanest fish i own atm but i doent really let my fish go at it iv got there all separate. but so far my female festae has the worst temper and she's 9" and growing but she has the biggest body count.
I'm going to say it....... Jack dempsey, I'll put my 12 inch dempsey up against any flowerhorn or dovii or umbee. Tough as nails
the most aggressive cichlid that I have ever owned would either be my male dovii from a few years back,or my beani cichlid that I have right now.
hard one , at one time had top aggressive 12 in one tank with 15 feet of pvc pipe cut into 15 inch tubes no deaths from fighting or sickness 5 years. uhhhhhhh 1 hatian cichlid 2 grammode 3 butikoferi 4 cuban 5 red devil 6 jag 7 wolf 8 umbee 9 black belt 10 green beani 11 tiger mota 12 toss up between istalantus and mayan cichlid. all could be meaner if kept alone at first but u put all together at same size , see more. some cichlids are more aggressive at there breeding stage or maturity 3.5 to 5 inches red devil for example but when older mellower but still territorial fish. i always here jag or dovi or umbee. ha u never over stocked and held it down wit da monsters i guess.my alphas grew bigger they were community smarter and still instinctivly hunters quarrelers and most of all family
You wouldn't happen to have any pictures or videos of this setup would you? My bs meter almost broke when I read this one.
