Yes that it! I think that's a pretty safe choice to get one of those (judging by live aquariia description)

Thanks!

I assumed it would be peaceful with other fish based on the description but I am probably wrong

It is overly aggressive, and therefore, only one should be kept per tank. An aquarium of 50 gallons or larger provides suitable housing.

Yea but when I have read similar descriptions for chiclids it was because they were.overly aggressive to the same species. That's why I made that assumption which was clearly wrong.

So they won't be on my list because all my other fish are.peaceful

Well they can work out in an aggressive tank. Possibly they wont bother fishes like flame angel (if they value their life i.e. :P) or foxface (because of the venomous sting). You gotta decide what type of fishes you want. It will narrow down your options a lot and will help your decide much better. Like, I prefer semi-aggressive fishes and they can mix easily with peaceful fishes (given the right order of stocking) but aggressive are meant to live in a tank where each other would have to leave each other alone :P
