So I hear people calling Oscars pansies, while I don't disagree. I have one specimen that may be the exception. For measured brutality I challenge anyone to find a nastier Oscar than my Brutus. He's only 12" and still averaging around an inch per month. He has been housed in a 125 with the following
-13" red devil male (3 days survived)
-10" jag male (less than 24 hrs)
-12" male red dragon FH (6 hrs, broken tank divider, pulled the fh.) Too beautiful to be destroyed that way
-10" Green terror (4 days)
-11" Texas (3 days)
They say pansy, I almost changed his name to wood chipper :P20151021_130612.jpg
 
2.5" female dovii. She killed my favorite female sal, 2 firemouths, and a 5" angel in less than 48 hrs. She jumped out today during a wc, and was scooped up by my dachshund . I managed to get her out of the dogs mouth, and tossed her back in the tank. She is begging for food right now. Aggro, and indestructible.

And then there is Ben, I have no idea if he would kill another fish, since he has never encountered one since I have had him. He will happily attack anything that trespasses into his space. This is old, he is a bit bigger now.
 
Is question pound for pound? I concur with siestaSkyy. I had female orange pike (xingu-1) that was insane. I've never seen a meaner faster fish, but hands down full grown dovii is in a class by himself and unless new fish found I don't see record broke
 
This is when my dovii was 12" and would be murdered by the female pike mentioned above...after he grew 8" more she'd be a snack

So far, the baddest I've seen are baby (fry) tiger motaguense. At 3 weeks old they are little terrors to each other! Had 10...now 5, maybe 6..plus the one who thinks he can eat me gets all feisty when I look at him/her.
