best way Ive found is to use a video cam. When you put it on the comp its easier to pause a good shot than to hope they keep still long enough.

next time i take pics of these guys i'm going to feed them first that way they'll be to stuffed to move around so much. Peanut mine are getting along great so far. I still think i lucked out here and got a male and female. The 1 pike does this weird dance for the other pike like she's trying to seduce him or something lol. Anyway i'm going to move them into a 100 gallon tank this weekend. Not much of a difference from the 90 but alittle more space to swim in. Eventually they will land in 1 of my 125's but i'm going to wait till they tell me they need more space. 1 of the pikes is pushing 7 inches now and the other is still much smaller.
more pics please! can't get enough :D

Watch their gills...if they flair them out, and smack each other with their tails, its not a 'seduction' dance...lol...

no its more like the smaller pike gets in front of the larger pike and swims up and down and all around lol. The larger pike seems to like it.

isn't it sad when you get to the point where you can't add another fish? I'm right there with you bud.

how big is this guy?
i got one at about 4" and he is still wearing his juvenile colours... when do they morph to your stage?
i got mine for about 12 USD.

$12 is a steal man. Where did you get a cobra pike for $12?
