It has to be a shark.
someone catches the shark. Puts it in a small tub. Then it travels thousands of miles away getting the shark all stressed out. While in transport the shark will be thrashing. Water needs to circulated over him. The shark needs alot of room to swim but is confined to a small tub of water.
Then the shark will cost a couple of thousand dollars to maybe die on you.
I have heard a storie from a distributor. He had a $2000 shark. When the shark got to him the guy picked the shark up and dies 2 days later. What a waste of $2000

What does this have to do with aggression? An undulated trigger will kill any shark of comparable size in the aquarium trade.

I would say a full grown huma trigger they will bite threw power cords if you dont put some crabs in there to file down their teeth they have been also known to kill sharks when put in the same tank to long and another fish that would kill the huma would have to be a baracuda one store here had several for sale

I agree with the undulated trigger, I bought a few different species of triggerfishes, and he was awesome to watch. Some others are better looking, like the clown and blueline, or queen or titan trigger, but it's all personal preference, baracudas are bad azzz too. You can keep wrasses and lionfish with triggers, and most groupers, like a panther grouper would be sweet

Defintly some type of full grown trigger say a blue line or a queen or a undalte or a clown. They are not scared of nothing and everything is a meal to them.

How big of a tank are you talking about?
20g dottyback (just about any species)
30g domino or neon damsel
75g undulate trigger
250 queen or titan trigger

A tank I maintain had a RS Titan "Moses". One day he went on a rampage and killed the whole (750 gal) tank. Some victims were... 2' Nurse Shark, Hawaiian Dragon Moray, 8" RS Bluebird Wrasse, 8" show Blueface Angel, etc.
I thought it was going to be impossible to catch him, but as soon as the net hit the water he attacked it. I was able to scoop him out with ease. Its safe to say I will not be purchasing another one.
By the way, what kind of f'ed up person are you to want "something that will tear apart anything you put in the tank"???
