Killer Tomato.

So, this morning, I find my newly acquired deep water fish dead. :confused:
He was fine last night.
water parameters all good.

This is the 3rd incident with this crew.
First was a German Red, next a peacock that survived and now lives in my hospital tank until he gets his fins healed. Now this.

This is my #1 suspect:

This Tomato has a split personality. He thinks he is a piranha!
Whatever I put in the tank (vacuum tube, stick, or my arm) he starts attacking. Other fish swim away from him. He has chased all new guys for the first couple of days and then seems to let go.
I see other fish with minor fin damage.
Of all my fish, this is the only one I see as the most aggressive.

I want him gone. Anyone interested? $5 or trade for something. I'll bring him to the meeting on the 12th.

I'll bring him in a Kevlar bag and in shackles.
hate to lose him as he has colored very nicely.

I have two male tomatoes already when I added the second one to the tank the first pale non impressive one turned his color on like a light switch and his aggression went up 10 fold for a little while

I have 2 too for that same reason.
But this guy is total domination over the other one.
The other tomato looks like an albino and did not grow.

I was hoping this tomato landed in Becca's possessed tank :)
Maybe bring in the evil power heads too.
