Which is the most aggressive SA/CA cichlid in your experience/opinion?

[Formula_JP]

i'd have to go out on a limb and say that a lot of the wild caught cichlids have a much more aggressive nature than others, going from fending for themselves to being in a big tank basically being fed on a platter lol

hehe, you should see my 4 juvie Black nasties. They try to kill each other through the glass between their cells err tanks.

Out of the ones I have owned I would say in the following order:
1-Texas, 2-some blue/purple south african about 5 in I gave away, 3-Red Devil, 4-Firemouth, 5-Jack Dempsey, 6-Jewels, 7-Blood Parrot, 8-Jag, 9-Oscar, 10-Green Terror.
Probably looks odd to most...but this is how my aggression scale has worked. My oscar who has been in with all of these at fish at one time or another always is the tank boss...but he is never aggressive. They others just usually avoided him. Perhaps he is aggressive during the night when I dont see it.

have any one tried how aggressive the hornet cichlids i have one before who have killed all his tank mates thats why i move him on a pond. In my experience Hornets ranks first then jags,nadopsis and flowerhorns who have even tried to kill one of my turles.
